Sigma Cloud

Sigma Cloud is a different take on CSP

Naturally, it includes an online store where you can buy, provision, deploy and manage your clients’ Microsoft subscriptions. You’ll also find a range of vendors selected specifically to help you accelerate and simplify your clients’ journey to the cloud. Want your own branded store? You've got it.

But the biggest difference is the support. Azure sales enablement, expert licensing advice and a named account manager come as standard. As does an in-depth onboarding programme. No more arms-length, digital-only, work it out yourself 'service'.

To drive your growth, we've included a range of white-label migration, deployment and health check services. And don’t forget our reporting system that gives you complete oversight of your clients’ entire Azure CSP estates.

Sigma Cloud. The ready-made cloud extension for your business.

CSP is the modern licensing scheme from Microsoft that rewards resellers with good rebates.

"The Microsoft Cloud Solution Provider program enables partners to directly manage their entire Microsoft cloud customer lifecycle. Partners in this program utilize dedicated in-product tools to directly provision, manage and support their customer subscriptions. Partners can easily package their own tools, products and services and combine them into one monthly or annual customer bill."

You’ll receive Azure sales enablement training, ongoing support and licensing advice on tap. Our unique reporting tools will help you sell more whilst offering great customer service opportunities. We also over a wide range of complementary products and white-label services to help you grow your cloud business.

No. As much as we’d love you to move all your customers to Sigma Cloud, you can have multiple CSP providers. This mean you can move a few over to test Sigma Cloud and experience the brilliant service we offer.

The Sigma Cloud onboarding program is designed to get you up to speed as quickly as possible. It includes a detailed discovery and planning session, scheduled check-ins and ongoing licensing support. There’s more information here.

It’s the standard Microsoft process. Giving you access to the store with prices would also give you the ability to buy and provision licences, and this requires a contract to be in place.

We’ve got certified engineers across Azure and various Microsoft products. They also hold AWS, Alibaba, ManageEngine and Quest qualifications.

Accreditations

To deliver a holistic service to your clients our team of engineers are certified across multiple vendors
and platforms - this is only a brief selection. If you have any questions about how we can help please get in touch.
