The cloud has made technology, and in turn, connecting with one another, easily accessible to millions of people around the world. When the cloud first emerged on the scene, there were debates, concerns, and speculation about security, safety, how to regulate it, but more importantly, the UNKNOWN! It was tough back then, and if we’re being honest, a hard sell.
But now? If you’re an MSP who has decided to take a cloud-first approach to technology, you’re probably well aware of the many reasons to be thankful for the cloud. After all, it makes ongoing management and support a breeze. But if you’re just getting started, let’s dive deeper into what makes the cloud so incredible for MSPs.
First and foremost, think about how you use technology. If it weren’t for the cloud, what would your workday look like? Chances are, your employees rely on the cloud to work remotely from time-to-time – accessing company files and emails anywhere, from any mobile device.
The cloud makes productivity possible – no matter where you are.
Here’s the thing… The cloud makes productivity possible from any device or location. This is something virtually ALL businesses desire because at the end of the day, time is money. If your clients aren’t asking you about the cloud yet, it’s only a matter of time. From an MSPs perspective, the cloud is a lifesaver because:
- You don’t need as much manpower or resources to manage it, especially if you choose a cloud service provider instead of developing your own cloud solution as they’ll handle the monitoring, updates, and ongoing maintenance for you.
- You maintain your position as a thought leader because your clients will thank YOU for coming to them with something that cuts costs and improves productivity. You’re able to address many of their pain points with a simple solution instead of building a complex infrastructure that costs them even more time and money.
- You increase your monthly recurring revenue without adding complexity to your workload. Our partner program in particular gives you the ability to set your own margins and decide what price to bill your customers so you can sell the cloud at a cost that makes sense for you.
- You keep your clients happier than ever because the cloud offers greater uptime – it’s backed by data centers with built-in generators and redundancies in place to avoid outages. Not only are your clients happier, but you stop putting out fires constantly.
The cloud offers businesses more reliability, greater uptime, significant cost-savings, and of course, simplified management for MSPs who opt to take a cloud-first approach. Contact CPU, Inc. now to find out more about our cloud partner program.
