New partner network will help Oracle-based software
vendors to migrate their applications smoothly, quickly and
profitably to a Cloud-based model…
Quantix, part of the Interoute Group, one of the UK's premier
providers of IT solutions and managed Cloud services, has launched
a new partner programme to help independent software vendors (ISVs)
capitalise on soaring demand for SaaS based applications.
The Quantix Partner Network (QPN) provides an enterprise-grade
hosting platform and comprehensive support services for ISVs
looking to migrate existing Oracle-based Applications to the Cloud
or to develop new Cloud-based applications for commercial
delivery.
QPN offers ISVs a complete set of infrastructural, technical and
business benefits, including:
- Nimbus-Q Cloud platform: An
application-ready hosting and delivery environment located in two
UK data centres, offering outstanding performance, security,
flexibility and scalability
- Assured service level agreements:
An ISO20000 service management model and seamless business
continuity for every Cloud application hosted on the Nimbus-Q
platform
- 24/7 technical support: Help with
every aspect of the migration, followed by ongoing 24/7 technical
and development support from QPN's team of database and
infrastructure experts
- Sales support: Tools and training to
help ISVs accelerate demand for their cloud solutions
- Outstanding credentials: Quantix has
ISO27001 accreditation for all security, HR and management
processes, is a Platinum level member of Oracle PartnerNetwork
(OPN) and Microsoft Gold Partner
Huge market opportunity
"The Cloud offers major revenue-generation and market
expansion opportunities for ISVs. By leveraging Quantix's SaaS
delivery experience, ISVs can gain significant competitive
advantage, reduce go to market investment risk, reach new markets
faster, and ultimately accelerate revenue growth,"
said Andrew Slater, Director of Cloud Services at
Quantix.
Quantix are now launching a 'quick start' programme for ISVs who
become members of the QPN. This 5 step programme sees Quantix
assess their Partners application for cloud readiness, provide a
'best practice' design, ensure end-user robustness, support the
selling process, and jointly educate the end users. With 2
Partner levels to choose from they hope to have an attractive
proposition for all ISVs regardless of their company size or
product maturity.
IDBS, a provider of data analytics software to the healthcare
and life sciences sectors, is one of the first ISVs to benefit from
QPN's services. "We're extremely happy with the SaaS enablement
service we have received from Quantix," said Chris Molloy, VP
Corporate Development, IDBS. "We have been able to satisfy our
customers' demand for SaaS while reducing our IT footprint, saving
costs."
"Oracle is pleased to hear that Quantix, a long-time Oracle
partner, has developed a managed cloud platform for Oracle ISVs and
has recently launched a value-added channel programme. With
its combination of next generation application hosting, sales and
marketing support, managed services and extensive Oracle expertise,
Quantix is poised to offera managed cloud platform for ISVs looking
at adopting or migrating to SaaS," said Kevin O'Brien, Senior
Director, SaaS and ISV Strategy, Oracle.
