The ASCII Group welcomes managed service providers (MSPs), IT solution providers, system integrators, and technology consultants of all sizes across the globe. Whether you’re a solo entrepreneur or run a large team, our community provides valuable resources, programs, and connections to help you succeed.

Is there a contract or long-term commitment?

No, ASCII membership is flexible. We offer monthly, quarterly, and annual plans to fit your needs. There are no restrictive long-term contracts, allowing you to focus on your business. Members stay because of the value they gain, not because they’re locked in.

Do I have to use certain vendors to join?

No. ASCII is vendor-neutral and operates independently of specific technology providers. You are not required to use any particular vendor solutions. Our members benefit from peer recommendations and exclusive partner offers, but all decisions remain completely in your hands as a business owner.

Can my entire team participate in ASCII?

Yes, membership covers your entire company, including current and future employees. There are no additional fees for adding team members. Everyone in your organization can access ASCII’s resources, attend events, and participate in programs to help drive your business growth and success.

What makes ASCII different from other peer communities?

ASCII has been supporting IT business owners since 1984. Our vendor-neutral approach, strong community culture, extensive peer sharing, and unmatched library of over 70 programs make us unique. Members value the genuine relationships, direct access to industry experts, and practical business resources.

Can I connect with other members outside of events?

Absolutely. Our members stay connected year-round through private member forums, virtual meetups, discussion boards, and peer accountability groups. Whether you want to share best practices, troubleshoot challenges, or simply network with fellow MSPs, there are many ways to engage beyond events.
