Pax8 Expands its Portfolio of Cloud Services, Adds Autotask Integration to Proprietary Marketplace Technology Platform USA - English

Lone Tree, Colo. (PRWEB) October 29, 2013 -- Pax8, a cloud commerce marketplace focused on the delivery of cloud-based solutions to a global network of channel partners and their customers, today announced the addition of communications and infrastructure services from leading vendors Ajubeo, SilverSky, and Virsage to its rapidly-expanding cloud services portfolio. The company also announced the integration of Autotask professional services automation into its proprietary marketplace technology platform, the Pax8 Command Console.

"Pax8 channel partners and their customers now have easier access to a wider range of cloud-based services through Pax8, which can help them reduce costs and complexity while increasing efficiency in their businesses," said John Street, CEO, Pax8. "In addition, the integration of Autotask functionality into the Command Console increases the convenience and ease-of-use of the platform for partners who rely on it for sales and management of their customers' cloud services."

Broad cloud services portfolio bolstered by new offerings

To help its partners deliver the best of the cloud, Pax8 has expanded its roster of cloud service offerings, which complement the company's existing cloud security, data management, and collaboration services. The new services include:

• Ajubeo - Ajubeo Unified Cloud Infrastructure Platform, which includes public-private-hybrid cloud virtual data centers, virtual desktops, backup and BCDR, all delivered via Ajubeo-owned and operated best-of-breed technology for 100% uptime and maximum performance.
• SilverSky - SilverSky Hosted Exchange, Hosted Sharepoint, and Hosted Microsoft Lync services help businesses through reduced costs, complexity, and risk over on-premises email and collaboration services.
• Virsage - Virsage Application Delivery and Hosted Desktop solutions, which help businesses to simplify IT and help to control spiraling costs. The services include remote access, backups, and support at a manageable monthly cost with no hardware investment.

"Adding these robust new services to our portfolio will help our partners meet the increasing demand for cloud-based services," said Street. "Their customers are looking for new solutions, and in particular, cloud-based email and virtual data centers and desktops, and we've made it easy for partners to access the services their customers want the most."

Autotask integration increases convenience of Command Console

With the addition of Autotask integration, Pax8 partners with an Autotask license will be able to seamlessly import account information directly into the Pax8 Command Console.
The Command Console is a proprietary marketplace technology platform that enables Pax8 partners to easily quote, order, provision and bill for a wide range of services.

"Pax8 partners with an Autotask license can now import customer and user information into the Command Console,” said Street. “The integration with Autotask will make the Command Console even more convenient and easy to use for our partners.”

“This integration gives Managed Services Providers the ability to easily streamline how they access their customers’ information,” said Patrick Burns, Vice President, Product Management, Autotask. “By having Autotask data at their fingertips users can see at-a-glance how to more effectively service and respond to customer needs.”
