Advanced 365 and Delta Channel Services sign partnership agreement; New partnership will support global software vendors' move to cloud delivery(M2 PressWIRE Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) Managed services specialist, Advanced 365 (Advanced), today announces its partnership with Delta Channel Services, a global management consultancy that works with independent software vendors (ISVs) to develop their business and sales channels. This partnership brings together Delta's cloud consulting, marketing and financial expertise with Advanced's cloud infrastructure and delivery experience so that ISVs looking to move to a cloud/Software as a Service (SaaS) delivery model are provided with a 'one stop shop' solution. John Miller, Director, Delta Channel Services says, "ISVs may want to provide their customers with a SaaS delivery model but are without the in-house experience and the infrastructure to effectively take the offering to market." "Our partnership with Advanced 365 provides a complete 'go to market' package for ISVs, ensuring that they are fully supported from consultancy through to implementing the most suitable SaaS platform." Neil Cross, Managing Director of Advanced 365 comments, "Software vendors are not always well positioned to become the next generation of SaaS providers. This is why having the support of 'best of breed' experts who can work in partnership to deliver a complete SaaS offering is so important. With Delta's extensive business development expertise and our 10 years' experience providing cloud delivery services, we can offer ISVs the perfect solution."
