About Datto Holding CORP.

Datto Holding Corp. (ticker: MSP) was a U.S. technology company historically listed on the NYSE in the United States, before being acquired in 2022 by Kaseya. For French- and Benelux-based investors, Datto is best understood as a former software infrastructure specialist built around the managed service provider (MSP) ecosystem — the channel partners that design, monitor, secure, and support IT environments for small and mid-sized businesses. The company was formed under Vista’s ownership in 2017 through the combination of Datto, Inc. and Autotask, creating a broader platform intended to serve MSPs with integrated tools. Its headquarters were in Norwalk, Connecticut, United States, and its commercial footprint extended primarily across North America with an international partner-driven presence. Datto’s core business centered on cloud-managed software and appliances for business continuity and disaster recovery (BCDR), backup, remote monitoring and management (RMM), professional services automation (PSA), networking, and related SaaS tools. One of its flagship offerings was SIRIS, a BCDR solution combining a physical or virtual appliance deployed at a customer site or private data center, endpoint agent software, and a cloud layer for storage, virtualization, and administration. That architecture was designed to help MSPs protect SMB clients, recover critical systems quickly, and manage recurring service relationships more efficiently. Over time, Datto also broadened its suite with workflow, networking, and operational software aimed at helping MSPs scale their businesses. From a competitive standpoint, Datto stood out because it was not just a backup vendor; it was an ecosystem company focused on the operational needs of MSPs. Its main strength was the integration of complementary products into a cohesive platform, which encouraged partner loyalty and made it easier for MSPs to standardize their toolsets. This gave Datto a strong position in backup and disaster recovery for the SMB segment, even though it operated in a highly crowded market facing competition from infrastructure software, cybersecurity, and IT management vendors. Its differentiation lay in channel intimacy, product bundling, and the ability to address the full MSP workflow. Recent corporate history is dominated by the acquisition process. In April 2022, Datto announced a merger agreement, and Kaseya completed the acquisition in June 2022 for $35.50 per share in cash. As a result, Datto is no longer an active listed equity, even though the historical ticker MSP remains associated with its prior NYSE listing. For investors reviewing SEC Form 4 insider activity, that means the relevant transactions are largely legacy filings from the pre-acquisition period. In strategic terms, Datto represents a U.S.-based software platform built for MSPs, with strong legacy positions in backup, continuity, and IT operations, now absorbed into Kaseya’s broader software portfolio.
