HOLLYWOOD, Fla., Aug. 1, 2016 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- CompTIA today announced that more than 150 exhibitors will showcase innovative channel-focused products and solutions, enablement tools and partner at CompTIA ChannelCon, taking place today through Wednesday, Aug. 3 at the Diplomat Resort and Spa in Hollywood, Fla.

MSP cloud communications partner BVoIP, LLC is attending ChannelCon for the first time this year, and will be exhibiting in Booth #318. "We are thrilled to be attending our first ChannelCon this year. Being involved in such a far-reaching event in the IT industry gives you real insight into the heartbeat of the industry. CompTIA is great at creating an atmosphere where our colleagues from around the tech world can connect and collaborate, and we are honored to be a part of the story and work together to advance the IT industry," said George Bardissi, President & CEO, BVoIP.

The ChannelCon 2016 Vendor Technology Fair will also include:

• Artisan Infrastructure, provider of channel-only cloud infrastructure, cloud management and business continuity solutions, will unveil its new name, Neverfail and announce the acquisition of Vertiscale, developer of Workspace-as-a-Service (WaaS) technology for managed service providers (MSPs). With the acquisition, Neverfail customers will now have access to one of the industry's largest portfolios of cloud-based technologies from a single vendor. Booth #205
• Beachhead Solutions, provider of cloud-managed mobile device encryption, security and data access control for businesses of all sizes, will announce that it is now offering free licenses of its cloud-managed mobile device security platform for any MSP to use internally. The reasons are twofold: MSPs - who often have access to their clients' sensitive data - can better inoculate themselves from that data falling into the wrong hands, and they can become more familiar with Beachhead's platform as they sell to clients.  Booth #420
• Concerto Cloud Services, a fully managed cloud provider for mission-critical applications will feature its "Journey to the Cloud" Experience. Booth #615
