AUTOMATE MSP OPERATIONS TO ACCELERATE TIME TO MARKET

Streamline & centralize your MSP XaaS procurement to scale in the As a Service economy

Expanding your catalog and offering subscription based XaaS solutions boosts your ARR

What challenges do MSPs face?

Managed Service Providers (MSPs) must respond to the ever-increasing demand for bundled XaaS solutions from customers. They require complete solutions bundled and delivered as a service, payable in fixed monthly installments and, ideally, through a single supplier.

Previously, this meant MSPs like you needed to add new people to quote, procure, provision, and manage all these processes manually using individual vendor portals. Today, thanks to greater volumes and increasing complexity, this operational inefficiency is dead weight you can’t afford to carry – and your speed to market is compromised.

Shadow IT is also an issue for customers and for MSPs – who lose out on potential business. MSPs are often unable to keep their catalogs growing at the rate they need to due to the long and costly integration work required.

And as more MSPs make acquisitions and grow internationally, multiple new systems and processes are often introduced which impacts operational efficiency negatively.

This means organizations often lack visibility at a central level and costs can spiral.

“Buyers … favor subscription business models because of continuous upgrades and their predictable costs and revenues.”
