Only seeing PR releases, corporate profiles and unreliable sources, falling short of WP:CORP. Drewmutt (^ᴥ^) talk 02:38, 23 February 2018 (UTC)

Addressing the concern about source validity: 1) The references do not include any PR releases. 2) The only reference that points to the corporate webpage is associated with noting the company's office locations. 3) The majority of the references point to articles from significant IT channel industry websites/publications (e.g., CRN, ChannelPro Network, Channel Futures) where content is written by independent journalists who cover ConnectWise, its competitors and news about the IT channel sector. Also, this is my first comment on an AfD. Trying to learn as I go; please kindly provide advice if I've misspoken here! Wordgirl60 (talk) 13:04, 23 February 2018 (UTC)
- Delete No indications of notability, a run-of-the-mill company. References are either based on company announcements or rely on quotations, content not intellectually independent and in-depth. Fails WP:CORPDEPTH and WP:ORGIND, topic fails GNG. HighKing++ 01:58, 2 March 2018 (UTC)

- Delete doesn't pass WP:ORGIND. I couldn't find enough coverage to meet notability requirements. Cait.123 (talk) 10:25, 2 March 2018 (UTC)
- Keep . Although many media references/sources may be unfamiliar to those outside of the IT channel sector, they are significant in this particular technology sector and the articles are written by independent journalists who cover the IT technology provider sector (example: CRN). New edits to the article indicate the company's significance by noting that one of its executives is a board membership for CompTIA, considered one of the IT industry's top trade associations as noted in the CompTIA Wikipedia article, and information about a January 2018 acquisition.

- Delete: fails WP:NCORP / WP:CORPDEPTH. The coverage is passing mentions and / or WP:SPIP. K.e.coffman (talk) 01:38, 10 March 2018 (UTC)
