• How is my data protected?
  Ask about their security policies, procedures, and compliance certifications. How will they protect your data and help you meet regulatory requirements?
  
• Do you have experience in my industry?
  Ask for references or case studies from businesses like yours. This will give you insight into their experience and effectiveness in your industry.
  
• Is your support available around the clock?
  Determine the level of support they offer. This includes availability, response times, and the process for resolving issues.
  
• What makes your MSP unique?
  Finally, understand what sets them apart from other providers. This could be their expertise, customer service, innovative solutions, or something else. Do their unique abilities fit with your needs?
