And portal 2.0 in USA and Europe
This is a Press Release edited by StorageNewsletter.com on October 19, 2012 at 2:50 pmMozy (Decho Corporation) at MSPWorld is showcasing enhancements to its Mozy Reseller Program
in 2012 including:
- Revamped reseller program and portal 2.0 in the U.S. and Europe
- Debut of customizable, co-branded marketing and sales materials
- New MDF program
- Lead management tools (including
opportunity registration) to help resellers grow their businesses with Mozy - Lead sharing for Mozy Platinum resellers
- New channel-friendly pricing for MozyPro and MozyEnterprise
Increasing demand from SMBs for professional-grade online data backup and
access solutions has resulted in the doubling of Mozy’s channel business the
past three years and growth in new markets including Europe and Asia.
"We’ve never been more
focused as a company on selling Mozy through the channel than we are right now,"
said Darrell Gamble, director of channel sales at Mozy, recognized as a CRN channel
chief for 2012. "Since we rolled
out our all-new reseller portal and new pricing for MozyPro and MozyEnterprise
earlier in the year, the feedback from our resellers has been tremendous. We’re
here at MSPWorld talking to MSPs about how they can introduce recurring revenue
streams into their business by reselling Mozy’s industry leading suite of world-class
cloud services."
"Before we became a Mozy
reseller we went through several of the online backup competitors and reviewed
their products," said Dan Winterhalter at Infitech LLC, a MSP based in West Chester,
OH. "What we found right off the bat
was that the Mozy pricing was right, the product worked well, and it had the
best feature set when it comes to server backup. Those things were the most
important to us. Since then we’ve been able to get to know their people and
watch Mozy constantly improve the product and the reseller program over time.
We now have over 400 active clients on Mozy, backing up multiple TBs of data.
And we’re only just getting started."
The opportunity and need for technology resellers to include
value-added online data access and backup services in their portfolios has been greater.
According to oft-quoted research from DTI/Price Waterhouse Coopers,
7 out of 10 small firms that experience a major data loss go out of business within
a year. Just as alarming, a full 96% of all business workstations are not being
backed up (Contingency Planning and Strategic Research Corporation).
"Seven years ago when
Mozy was founded, our mission was to back up the world," said Gamble,
"We’re now covering everything from
home computers to mission-critical servers and workstations, and Mozy backup is
in use at SMBs, mid-market companies and large enterprises. And we have our
trusted partners to thank for much of that growth. Our partners told us what
tools they needed to be successful, and ever since we’ve been focused on
delivering a world-class channel program."
