BackupAgent Launches Backup Service Distributor Partner Program

Dutch company BackupAgent launches Backup Service Distributor, a partner program for service providers, including hosting companies, ISPs, Telcos and SaaS providers. With the program, service providers can enable their resellers to offer online backup services to customers. These services can be distributed by the service provider via their resellers. Distributors can offer BackupAgent’s backup and recovery services to their resellers. Within the program, BackupAgent supports distributors and resellers in sales, marketing, funded heads and reseller acquisition programs. No other backup and recovery supplier offers such broad support.

With Backup Service Distributor BackupAgent stimulates the cooperation between its distributors and resellers. The program enables resellers to offer BackupAgent’s solution to customers in an easy and cost-effective way. If they want, they can offer a full backup service and label it as their own. This means they decide themselves on the service package, price and Service Level Agreements. In this way, a reseller can bring a backup service to the market without the need of large investments. BackupAgent has launched the Backup Service Distributor Program in the Netherlands, Nordics and Poland. BackupAgent is working on a network with European coverage.

“Our unique program leads to synergy and combined power for distributors and resellers. Distributors have the infrastructure and the means to service a large group of clients. Thanks to this economy of scale they can offer services for a competitive price. Resellers can profit from this through this new program”, says Roland Sars, director Marketing & New Business Development at BackupAgent. “Resellers in turn have local coverage, know their client’s systems and know the end-user. Our software is especially developed for Backup Service Distributor participants. The software is multi-tenant: it is possible to create various layers for different resellers. They each have their own rights, settings and label.”
