announced DirectCloud
Marketplace
For over 15-years, the company has been
selling technology products to more than 50,000 Canadian SMBs.
Through DirectCloud customers can take advantage of a network of
business-class cloud applications.
Applications include email, instant
messaging, security, backup and storage, CRM, help desk,
virtualization, collaboration, and more.
Solutions from vendors such as
Box, Microsoft, Adobe, McAfee, CA Technologies, Symantec, Intermedia,
SherWeb, VaultLogix, and more.
"The goal of the DirectCloud
Marketplace is to present cloud solutions that address our client’s
business requirements to complement their on premise infrastructure.
Whether it is backup to the cloud as a key element of their DR
strategy, or enabling more effective communication across a remote
workforce, DirectCloud offers a solution," said Bill King,
DirectDial.com’s VP sales.
DirectCloud is a cloud services
brokerage. They work with cloud vendors purchasing services on a
wholesale level. Offering multiple solutions from each product
category they are not limited by a narrow set of solutions like most
of their competitors. As an intermediary that aggregates and
integrates only business-class cloud services, the client need not
wade through lists of consumer apps and start-up vendors.
"We focus on the needs of
business. We don’t deal with consumer-grade technology. We provide
affordable, quality services with comprehensive support", said Greg Bruzas, DirectDial.com’s president and CEO.
The marketplace includes online
procurement, consultancy, provisioning, migration and deployment,
with support creating a one-point-of-contact model. While these
services come from different vendors, they can be ordered,
integrated, and managed together resulting in one predictable monthly
bill.
"This model offers a complete
one-stop cloud solution for our clients. We are positioned to provide
end-to-end cloud procurement services." added King.
The service will continue to expand its
portfolio as new vendors and solutions are identified that bring
value. Through cloud partners, it will ensure projects are rolled out
securely all while guiding customers through every step of the
process.
"Our customers are starting to
understand the value that cloud can bring to their organization. As
IT departments are expected to do more, with less, companies are
looking for an outsourced expert that can not only provide them cloud
products but also help them with deployment and integration into
their existing business environment seamlessly," concluded Bruzas.
