Pax8 leverages Acronis Cyber Platform to develop custom commitment models in its cloud market

Pax8 is the cloud distribution leader for the IT channel. Born out of the challenges emerging within traditional distribution because of cloud delivery and consumption models, Pax8’s mission is to enable the IT channel to simplify cloud buying through billing, provisioning, automation, PSA integrations, and pre-and-post sales support. The company is an award-winning disruptor in the market, earning accolades like NexGen’s Best in Show two years in a row, Biggest Buzz at IT Nation, CRN’s Coolest Cloud Vendor, and Best in Show at two consecutive XChange conferences.

Pax8 recognized early on that it needed to make the right investments into technology and integration to provide its MSP partners, as well as third-party solutions vendors, an optimal experience.

This ultimately involved automation and APIs – the cornerstone to interacting with the Pax8 cloud marketplace. According to Craig Donovan, Pax8’s VP of Partner Solutions, “Integrations are key to the MSP space. This is because an MSP is constantly managing a complex ecosystem of billing and quoting tools, inventory and ticket tracking, ordering products and provisioning. Often these systems are in different locations, which adds to the complexity.”
