RAY·ALLEN, Inc. announced on April 1st, 2026 the completion of two simultaneous transactions: the acquisition of the enterprise platform technology and customer assets of Paratira Limited, and a minority strategic investment from Datatec plc (JSE: DTC / OTCQX: DTTLF). Together, these transactions mark a significant expansion of the Nexa Platform Suite and introduce two new capability paths that extend what RAY·ALLEN delivers to MSP partners.
What Changes for MSP Partners
The Paratira acquisition brings two new capability paths into the Nexa Platform Suite. The first is a Sales Enablement entry tier, designed for streamlined onboarding and near-instant partner value. The second is a Day 2 intelligence layer that converts MSP operational and observability data into real-time technical support insights, reducing resolution time and surfacing issues before they escalate into incidents. This capability launches with a Paratira-built LogicMonitor connector and a roadmap of additional platform integrations.
Together, these paths make the Nexa Platform Suite easier to start and more powerful to scale.
About the Paratira Acquisition
Paratira Limited is a UK-registered enterprise technology company whose platform was developed with a focus on solving real-world MSP operational challenges at scale. RAY·ALLEN acquires Paratira's intellectual property, platform technology, and customer assets, giving RAY·ALLEN direct, first-party ownership of both capability paths and the Paratira-built LogicMonitor connector.
About the Datatec Investment
Datatec plc is a $3.6B global ICT Operator with 40 years of operating history across more than 50 countries. Their portfolio includes Logicalis International and Westcon-Comstor, representing significant global enterprise channel depth and a longstanding Cisco ecosystem partnership. Datatec's minority equity investment in RAY·ALLEN establishes a formal strategic partnership.
RAY·ALLEN remains fully independently operated under its existing leadership team. The investment does not alter RAY·ALLEN's operating structure, partner relationships, or strategic direction.
What Leadership Is Saying
“RAY·ALLEN has been the partner the global IT channel trusts to drive revenue growth. With the addition of the Paratira platform, we are redefining that role—moving beyond growth into how partners operate and make decisions. The new entry tier delivers immediate Sales insight with minimal friction, and our Day 2 intelligence capabilities signal a clear shift: RAY·ALLEN is now operating inside the intelligence layer of MSP infrastructure. We are ready to engage with partners across the global IT channel on this next phase of the platform and look forward to the conversation." Todd Ringleman, Chief Executive Officer, RAY·ALLEN, Inc.
"I’m delighted to welcome RAY·ALLEN Inc. into the Datatec Group portfolio. By combining Paratira’s capabilities with the Nexa suite, we are expanding a market-leading platform with the core capabilities and insights needed to elevate MSPs in the AI era. This integrated offering positions RAY·ALLEN well for sustained growth and long-term value creation for customers and shareholders. " Jens Montanana, Chief Executive Officer, Datatec
"We built Paratira to turn complex operational data into clear, actionable insights, so MSPs can move faster, prove value, and drive better outcomes for customers. With RAY·ALLEN acquiring Paratira and integrating our platform into NexaONE, we are delivering immediate value for MSP partners: faster onboarding and next-level operational insight for day-to-day managed services. Equally, it sets our platform and team on the path to something bigger: to be part of an established ecosystem and platform suite customers can start small with and expand out as they scale." Toby Alcock, Chief Executive Officer, Paratira Limited
