ePlus Announces Cloud Aggregated Services
October 18 2016 - 8:30AM
A new suite of cloud services from ePlus inc. (NASDAQ:PLUS)
addresses changing market trends in customer experience and
engagement models. ePlus Cloud Aggregated Services is ideal
for customers implementing a cloud-first strategy or seeking to
simplify their IT deployments and mitigate risk. The services
target key cloud focus areas including strategic assessments, cloud
infrastructure, service-provider connectivity, co-location, and
interconnection as well as cloud collaboration.
“Information Technology professionals must
assume their new role as innovation brokers and quickly seek ways
to proactively improve productivity and engagement, lower costs,
and accelerate strategic business initiatives,” said Scott
Gilgallon, ePlus cloud solution director. “ePlus Cloud
Aggregated Services offers clients a single trusted resource, cloud
expertise, and first-hand knowledge across hundreds of industry
providers to carefully assess, select, and implement cloud
solutions quickly.”
Strategic assessment is a key pillar of the new
offering. ePlus Cloud Assessments help clients evaluate which
cloud models (private, hybrid, and/or public) are best suited for
their specific applications or workloads, and then map, monitor,
and identify network-connectivity-dependent workloads for proper
migration planning. The assessments also provide a
comprehensive roadmap for future expansion and utilization.
“Cloud adoption is accelerating and changing the
very essence of information technology,” said Mike Trojecki, ePlus
vice president of Business Transformation. “Large enterprises
are viewing their IT infrastructures less as data centers, but
‘centers of data’, where applications may be physical, SAAS, or
containerized and on platforms which are private, public, or
hybrid. The delivery mechanism has become a lower priority
than achieving the desired business outcome, scalable capacity,
robust performance, reduced costs, and mitigating risk.
Forward-thinking CIOs recognize these trends and ePlus Cloud
Aggregated Services offer the best path forward.”
In addition to assessments, ePlus Cloud
Aggregated Services offer enterprise options in four strategic
service areas including:
- Cloud infrastructure - Infrastructure as a
Service, Backup and Disaster Recovery as a Service, cloud storage,
and hosted security
- Co-location and interconnection - Co-location
and specialized cloud-connected co-location services in more than
1,200 centers
- Connectivity optimization - Competitive
Internet, voice, data, and conferencing
- Cloud collaboration - Managed Office 365,
Hosted Microsoft Exchange, Desktop as a Service, and Hosted
VoIP
“ePlus Cloud Aggregated Services simplify IT
management, drive IT governance and compliance, and help our
clients innovate quickly,” said Kevin Detsch, ePlus senior vice
president of Business Development. "Our assessment-led methodology
lets clients rapidly implement these solutions. This simplified and
efficient model can enable organizations to reduce time to benefit,
lower costs, and improve their overall competitiveness.”
