Microsoft Cloud solutions partner

1. IFI TechsoluTIons What Is a Microsoft Cloud Solution Provider? A Microsoft Cloud Solution Provider is an organization that offers software, networks, and infrastructure on the cloud to enterprises. Microsoft has created a program that enables CSPs to directly sell its well-known products in addition to their own services and value-added goods. CSP partners can create a comprehensive bundle under the program and charge their clients however they see suitable. Microsoft Cloud Solution Provider Services With every year that goes by, cloud services become more and more popular. The highest point of this expansion yet has been reached in 2020. The moment has come to become a Microsoft Cloud Solution Provider and take advantage of this explosive growth. A CSP sets up networks, infrastructure, and apps in the cloud, as was previously indicated. These services are available online and are housed in off- site data centres. Companies can hire a CSP based on their needs and pay for their services on a usage basis, rather than investing in and maintaining their own costly infrastructure. Although CSPs provide a wide range of services, they usually fall into three categories: * Software as a service (SaaS)

2. * Platform as a service (PaaS) * Infrastructure as a service (IaaS) However, it can be challenging and complex to build up a cloud data centre from the ground up and provide a variety of services and support on your own. It is precisely where CSP initiatives might be useful. You can increase your net profit by taking full ownership and control of the client lifecycle—including invoicing and support—by becoming a CSP. In addition, by joining Microsoft's CSP programme as a partner, you can provide the most complete, best-of-breed solutions and services. Additionally, you can offer your clients value-added services and original solutions of your own. You will be in charge of invoicing even if you are providing Microsoft's software; you can send your clients a single monthly or yearly fee. You can use several touchpoints to address your consumers' requirements while using Microsoft's CSP programme. A Direct CSP Partner: What Is It? Microsoft collaborates directly with direct CSP partners. At a 20% profit margin, these resellers buy their stock-keeping units (SKUs) from Microsoft and resale them to their clients. Resellers who choose this model must have sufficient resources to meet all of their clients' needs, including providing round-the-clock technical help, since Microsoft provides little to no technical support under this model. The approval process for becoming a direct CSP partner is a complex and drawn-out process that can take up to four months. In addition, resellers that wish to use this model need to fulfil a few prerequisites. It is necessary for resellers to have an active Microsoft Partner Network (MPN) ID in order to become a direct CSP partner. They need to pass a credit check in order to be eligible for a Microsoft support plan. Direct CSP partners must have a strong customer billing system because they must bill their clients directly. In addition to maintaining at least one Microsoft Gold Productivity Competency, businesses must provide at least one internet protocol (IP), managed service, or client solution application. An Indirect CSP Partner: What Is It? Gaining access to the market more quickly and easily is possible by becoming an indirect CSP partner. Indirect CSP partners do not purchase SKUs from Microsoft, in contrast to direct CSP partners. Alternatively, they might purchase their SKUs from their CSP distributor and resell them to clients at a profit of their choosing. The fact that you don't even need to be a support specialist to be an indirect CSP partner is its best feature. Your CSP partner is in charge of your customer service. You can get business advice, a business portal, and flexible terms and rates from CSP partners.

3. The most common, easiest to understand, and fastest way to market your services is through an indirect CSP partner. With this strategy, the majority of the labor-intensive work is handled by your provider's infrastructure and skills. Because you are utilising the infrastructure of your CSP provider, you avoid the upfront fees. Having an experienced partner for infrastructure management and support relieves you of this burden and lets you concentrate on growing your business and serving customers more quickly.
