PCR Tech and IT retail, distribution and vendor news
CMS Distribution has launched CMS Cloud Powered by Flexiscale, a cloud platform enabling the channel to provide a full range of cloud services under their own brand.
Resellers can now provide their own cloud services portfolio including pre-packaged virtual appliances, Infrastructure as a Service, Platform as a Service, Hosted Desktop and Hybrid Working Solutions, with full predictability of costs.
CMS Cloud is built using the latest green technology in wholly owned Flexiscale UK data centres, allowing organisations to reduce their carbon footprint and help in the fight against climate change.
“Flexiscale bringing CMS Cloud to our reseller base is a really exciting proposition. Offering this service means that our partner base can more easily move to consumptive IT and all the benefits that go with that,” said Nick Bailey, Director of Vendor Alliances at CMS Distribution.
David Pratt, Flexiscale’s Sales and Marketing Director, adds: “This is a huge opportunity for the channel, opening up new revenue streams in the lucrative cloud services market. The value-added solutions that the partnership between CMS and Flexiscale brings arm the channel with a compelling solution to compete and win against the hyperscalers, whilst giving end customers tailored, value-add cloud solutions. The recurring monthly revenue cloud model plays well in uncertain economic times, whilst providing a predictable revenue stream. Additionally, end customers no longer need to make upfront capex investments in expensive hardware, software and support and instead can move IT costs to an easy-to-manage predictable monthly operational expense.”
