SUSE has launched the SUSE Cloud Elevate Programme for MSPs that allows them to sell the company’s new SaaS suite of Enterprise Container Management open source solutions via AWS Marketplace.
This new initiative under the SUSE One Partner Programme is specifically designed for MSPs, empowering them to offer customers choice and deliver a seamless buying experience.
According to a Canalys report, over 54% of MSPs will be using SaaS marketplace to buy products. As many businesses turn to the cloud to tackle IT challenges, MSPs are facing greater pressure to deliver customised cloud solutions fast.
“In today’s rapidly evolving business landscape, MSPs need easy access to the right solutions that fit the unique business needs of each of their customers,” said Christine Puccio, Global VP, AWS Cloud, SUSE.
“Expanding our partner programme to further support MSPs in meeting these customer demands underscores SUSE’s ongoing dedication to SaaS solutions for our customers, open source ecosystem and our collaboration with AWS.”
The company has 2,625 European partners who will now have access to a range of SUSE Cloud and Rancher SaaS solutions, including SUSE Cloud Observability, SUSE Application Collection and SUSE Rancher Hosted, allowing them to expand their service offerings and SaaS offerings.
They will be able to quickly transact in AWS Marketplace through SaaS, helping to achieve quicker time-to-market and improved customer satisfaction.
As well as being able to sell via AWS Marketplace, MSPs can also distribute through Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud.
"MSPs like Syntax are always looking for new ways to accelerate time-to-value for our customers,” said Marc Caruso, Chief Architect at Syntax.
This marks the latest milestone in SUSE’s ongoing collaboration with AWS, which was a launch partner for the SUSE Cloud Elevate program in 2024.
