Hi MS Team,
I, like many others, have many customers in GCC High / Azure Government. But I am not myself in GCC High. This creates significant challenge as an MSP/MSSP. And the majority of DIB being small businesses that use MSPs/MSSPs.. this creates a lot of challenge for all involved.
The easiest way to solve this challenge seems to be for me to get a GCC High tenant; but requirements are currently stringent and limit MSPs from getting tenants. This ends up forcing bad security, such as creating shared accounts on customer tenants for MSPs to login to (or makes them manage dozens of separate accounts for each employee at each client).
Further, there is a lack of competition in the GCC High vendor space; 9 approved vendors for GCC High. This forces MSPs/MSSPs like myself, who have been using GCC High for years and have more daily experience in it than these vendors, to send business to these companies or at least create an opportunity for these businesses to try and take our clients (which some of them do try to do).
The whole situation is difficult for MSPs/MSSPs, and that's an issue when you consider how most DIB companies use MSPs/MSSPs/. I guess my question is.. are you all tracking this? Is it a concern you share, and are you addressing it at all?
