#AcronisCyberFitSummit Sponsor Spotlight: Virtuozzo

Sponsors play a valuable role in supporting the Acronis #CyberFit Summit and enabling Acronis to offer attendees a rich, full experience of networking, workshops, and high-caliber speakers. We’re thrilled to have Virtuozzo join us as an executive sponsor and to have their Director of Cloud Solutions, Patrick Dolan presenting on our panel: Profit Up, Churn Down: The Power of Hosting Ecosystems.

At this panel, Dolan will explain how the hosting space continues to evolve, and the expectations of its customers along with it. To keep pace, hosting service providers must stay competitive and offer options for their customers to benefit from cooperative integrations. Attendees will learn how this strategy can add additional revenue, cut support costs, and reduce churn.

For this blog, Anna Zueva, Marketing and Communications Manager at Virtuozzo, weighed in on the company’s strengths, partnering with Acronis, and offered some valued advice to grow your MSP:

Virtuozzo is the leading cloud enabler for MSPs, CSPs, and traditional hosting providers. As a service provider today, you must have a cloud play, and you have three basic options: build it yourself; buy from a last-generation platform provider and suck up the cost and complexity; or resell a hyperscale cloud, and wave goodbye to your margins (and customer ownership).

We give you a better alternative – in fact, we power the Alternative Cloud – the faster, more usable, more profitable alternative to all of the other cloud options you think you’re stuck with. Virtuozzo software is behind most of the fastest-growing cloud services on the market today.    So, if you’re a cloud provider that wants to make cloud faster, easier, and more profitable – let’s talk.

If you’re an MSP, looking for a way to combine what you already do with modern, easy-to-sell cloud services… talk to us, and our fantastic cloud-enabling partners who’ll be on our booth at the Summit!

Meeting people in person! It has been so long… our Americas team is hyped to be there, with our amazing cloud-enabling partners. Cloud and hosting are all about relationships, and we’d love to build new ones.

We’ll be talking about how MSPs and CSPs can enable Anything-as-a-Service with Virtuozzo Hybrid Infrastructure – our streamlined, high-performance OpenStack-based cloud platform.  Most importantly we’ll be showcasing some of our great partners from the Americas, including Tline, Alpha3 Cloud, Joe’s Datacenter, Stock Distribuidora, Nerivon, and CloudSouth.

If you’re an MSP attending the event, you need to meet these guys – they are your fast-track to cloud services that are easy to consume, easy to sell, and a much better alternative to hyperscale clouds, or complex enterprise cloud platforms and appliances.

In a cloud-first world, backup and disaster recovery are mandatory for all companies. Acronis provides the best solutions, and Virtuozzo provides the best cloud infrastructure and a network of partners who make it super-easy for you to take Backup-as-a-Service, DR-as-a-service, Infrastructure-as-a-Service – in fact, Anything-as-a-Service - to market.   It’s a natural fit for us, and for our MSP and CSP partners too.

Virtuozzo is the leading cloud enabler for MSPs, CSPs, and traditional hosting providers. We power the Alternative Cloud – the vast ecosystem of local, regional, national, and global cloud services that are more flexible, more performant, easier to manage, and more cost-effective than any of the hyperscale clouds.

Our partner ecosystem provides more flexibility, more choice, better support, and better pricing – which translates into better margin for you, and better service for your customers.  

If you’re an MSP looking for a better way to stay relevant with cloud services – or you’re a cloud provider looking for a more profitable way to run your business – we can help.

Cloud has to be a core part of your business – that’s just a given. But the cloud does not have to be complex, or risky, or take months to get to market, or require you to hire an army of engineers. It doesn’t have to be low margin, high difficulty – in fact, it should be quite the opposite.  

We can make it happen for you, right now. Partner, partner, partner with companies that make the cloud easy for you. Talk to Virtuozzo at the Summit, and meet our fantastic cloud-enabling partners. That’s it! 

Cloud infrastructure will continue its massive growth, there’s no doubt of that. As one of our CSP partners said recently, there is a literal tidal wave of demand.

The players and enablers will evolve too, as the alternative cloud market gains momentum and captures an even bigger slice of the pie.

Why is this going to happen? Small to mid-sized businesses, who do not require complex cloud infrastructure solutions, are quickly realizing there are alternatives that can help them speed time to market, decrease complexity, and most importantly improve profitability and ROI from cloud solutions. The same is true even for large enterprises who are implementing a multi-cloud approach.

At Virtuozzo, we're 100% focused on this alternative cloud and making cloud easy for the whole alternative cloud ecosystem. This is just the beginning of the massive opportunity for MSPs, CSPs, and next-gen hosting providers – and the beginning of a better way to do cloud, for all of their customers too. We're tremendously grateful for the support of our sponsors like Virtuozzo. The event, and all of the benefits attendees get out of attending, wouldn't be possible without them.
