As we move into 2024, I decided to reflect on BitTitan‘s 2023 coverage. BitTitan is a top-tier provider of migration and managed services automation solutions, trusted by IT professionals worldwide to effectively deploy and manage cloud technologies. Its flagship product, MigrationWiz, is the go-to SaaS solution for migrating mailboxes, documents, public folders, and Microsoft Teams across platforms.
One of BitTitan’s main goals in 2023 was securing North American thought leadership opportunities. Numerous BitTitan leaders and executives shared their perspectives on current trends (migrations, the cloud, patchwork IT, mergers and acquisitions, etc.) in 2023, including:
- Stacey Farrar, product marketing manager
- Frank Suglia, vice president of technical support, data and developer tools
- Bailey Smith, customer success engineer
- Rob Reinauer, director of data products

In 2023, these executives published a total of 36 articles on North American sites, a 9% increase from 2022. These articles earned approximately 6,179,897 impressions in 2023. Some of the topics they explored included:
