Acronis
Acronis #CyberFit Summit

Acronis is delighted to welcome Pax8 as an executive sponsor of the Acronis #CyberFit Summit in Miami. These sponsors are integral to bringing MSPs, partners, and attendees the best-possible event experience, and affording us the opportunity to provide top thought leaders to learn from and connect with.

Aaron Garza, SVP of Business Development of Pax8, will be one of many panelists presenting at the Business Optimization session dubbed Working with the Modern Cloud Distributor: How to Profit from the Model.

Join him, Rich Freeman, Kyle Fenske, Maria Moran, and Cheryl Rang, for this session on October 26, at 11:15 am. In recognition that the channel is evolving fast, and the distributor/MSP value equation is now more important than ever, you will learn how modern IT channel distribution is adapting, driving profits and efficiencies for MSPs. In this engaging panel, you'll hear from new and established cloud distributors, to discover how they see the future of the business world.

Before this session, we connected with Jennifer Bodell, Pax8’s SVP of Global Channel, for a sneak peek of some of the new tech Pax8 has coming down the line, gain some great MSP business advice, and much more:

In a nutshell, what should our attendees know about your company and what you can do to help make theirs more successful?

Pax8 is a leading provider of cloud technology solutions, simplifying how organizations buy, sell, and manage cloud products. We are committed to helping our partners grow their businesses. Through our advanced marketplace platform, innovative solutions, and education and enablement programs, Pax8 empowers companies to achieve more with the cloud.

What are you most looking forward to at the Acronis #CyberFit Summit?

After more than a year of virtual events, we look forward to being back in person. While virtual events allow us to reach a larger audience in more locations, you cannot replace the value of in-person connections and conversations.

We are really looking forward to the networking. The face-to-face interaction provides an excellent opportunity to talk to our partners, meet new people in the industry, and learn about the latest trends and challenges facing our community.

Why did you decide to partner with Acronis for the #CyberFit Summit in Miami?

Our strategic partnership with Acronis and its innovative technology has effectively kept our partners and their clients safe and secure. We are always looking for ways to strengthen the relationship, and the Acronis #CyberFit Summit in Miami provided the perfect opportunity. Additionally, the format, schedule, and list of presenters provide impactful knowledge and resources critical to our partners' success.

How can clients benefit from your services/products?

At Pax8, we are hyper-focused on enabling our partners and driving their growth. The Wingman Partner Program provides a dedicated point of contact, a team of solutions specialists, and 24/7 US-based support, ensuring they have the air coverage needed to succeed. Our industry-leading technology provides advanced automation that streamlines processes and improves efficiencies. And our education and enablement events teach partners to build robust technology stacks and upsell and cross-sell the solutions effectively. Through our dedicated approach, Pax8 partners are more strategic, productive, and successful.

What are the biggest changes you expect to hit the industry in the next year?

People are becoming more knowledgeable and familiar with technology, changing the way it is consumed. According to Forrester, 73% of buyers believe buying from a marketplace is more convenient. These behaviors will transform the industry as we see marketplaces emerge, providing a single purchase point for all technology users, including partners, vendors, and end clients.

Tell us your best piece of business advice for the IT channel audience at the Summit!

If the pandemic has taught us anything, it is the importance of being agile. The ability to pivot and change through these challenging times has proven critical, as we move into the new hybrid workplace and how we work continues to evolve. Through advanced cloud technology, companies can enable their employees to work from anywhere and on any device, establishing an adaptable environment designed for success.

Acronis is tremendously grateful for the support of our sponsors like Pax8. The event overall, and all of the benefits attendees get out of attending, wouldn't be possible without them.
