Local managed IT, business phone, and cybersecurity provider recognized among 130 managed service providers
MORRIS, IL, UNITED STATES, October 5, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Simple Communications, a Morris-based firm delivering managed IT, business phone, and cybersecurity offerings, has been included in MSP Summit’s 2026 MSPs to Watch list.
This roster highlights 130 managed service providers (MSPs) chosen by MSP Summit based on operational performance, growth metrics, and business fundamentals. Simple Communications appears on the list with Eric Peterson identified as its top executive and Morris, Illinois, noted as its headquarters.
This honor arrives as Simple Communications celebrates two decades of assisting local organizations with the technology they depend on daily. Operating from its Morris office at 118 E. Jackson Street and a second location in Ottawa, the company serves businesses, enterprises, and nonprofits throughout Grundy, LaSalle, Kendall, and Will counties.
MSP Summit indicates that firms featured on its MSPs to Watch list are assessed using the same criteria as the MSP 501 program. The evaluation examines revenue mix, recurring revenue, revenue per employee, and year-over-year growth. The MSPs to Watch list is presented in alphabetical order rather than as a ranked compilation.
“For 20 years, local businesses have trusted our team with the technology that keeps them connected and productive. Being named an MSP to Watch recognizes the work our people do every day to deliver responsive support and practical technology guidance to the communities we serve,” said Eric Peterson, president of Simple Communications.
Eric and Sarah Peterson launched the venture in 2006 as Peterson Computer Consulting, emphasizing responsive, high-quality assistance for small and midsize firms. Simple Communications originally operated as the company’s VoIP phone-services division; in January 2017, the IT and phone segments were merged under the Simple Communications banner.
Currently, Simple Communications delivers managed IT services, VoIP phone systems, cybersecurity, data backup, networking, and ongoing technology support. The organization helps customers oversee their IT and communications through a single local provider, allowing business owners and their teams to concentrate on serving their own clientele.
