HaloPSA
👤 Paul Hamilton (An IT-support duo who built the ticket tool for their own clients, then bootstrapped 15 years while rivals sold to PE.)🌐 siteLinkedIn
For 15 years it was a boring UK helpdesk tool. Then Kaseya hiked Datto's prices and MSPs came looking for an exit.
Will it work? · our read
Patience compounds. Fifteen quiet years of product depth met a moment: Kaseya's price hikes handed Halo the MSPs. Real profit, real product — but the breakout leaned on a rival's own goal.

Revenue is first-party: Halo Service Solutions Ltd (SC216980) filed medium-company statutory accounts showing £48.8M ($62M) turnover for the year ended 31 Mar 2025, 39% operating margin, 135 staff, up 64% YoY — so we ignore Latka's $13.9M estimate (about 4x too low). Founder-controlled (Paul Hamilton 73% per PSC), $0 outside funding; the "Hg majority stake" claim on some blogs is unverified and contradicted by the filing, so it is excluded. Hamilton's interview claims of "$100M revenue" and a "$2bn unsolicited offer" are founder-stated and later than the filing, so we did NOT use them as the headline number. The keyMove causality (Kaseya hikes drove the MSP exodus to Halo) is documented in r/msp, but the exact share Halo captured is our read [inference]. We never score you.
