Contour Data Solutions Partnering With Wasabi

To resell cloud storage solution

Contour Data Solutions, LLC, a Philadelphia, PA,-based IT company, joins the Wasabi Partner Network.

Wasabi Technologies, Inc. hopes to disrupt the cloud storage market with a solution that is one-fifth the cost and six times the performance of Amazon S3 storage.

Contour is joining the Wasabi Partner Network, an incentive program that aims to improve partner profitability while selling Wasabi’s cloud storage solution. Wasabi’s platform aligns with Contour’ own mission to simplify data solutions and provide clients with flexible solutions for their business.

Wasabi plans is offering a low pricing, volume incentives for partners, and cumulative growth. It is different from competitors like AWS and Google in that there are no data egress charges or API fees. Their partner program includes a partner portal, sales and technical training, marketing resources, and volume-based incentives.

Gary Kirk, CTO, Contour, was quoted on CRN.com, saying Wasabi’s technology and market approach will: “eventually disrupt the storage market“.

He continued: “The main issues that our customers suffer from when they make the choice to go with either Azure or AWS is the fact that their final invoice is never what they expect. The prices from these vendors are just represented as ‘storage costs’ when this realistically only makes up a max of 50% of the final bill. The rest is comprised of different fees, the majority of which is the dreaded egress fees. So what’s the use of using a storage medium where you are heavily penalized for using the data you stored? Contour follows the same philosophy as Wasabi and does not charge for egress fees from our network.
