Crayon Helps Customers Embrace the Cloud Though Microsoft Cloud Solution Provider Program


DALLAS, June 14, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Crayon, a global leader in software asset management for businesses, today announced it is now selling through the Microsoft Cloud Solution Provider (CSP) program. This licensing model enables Crayon to be the center of the customer relationship by providing direct billing, sell combined offers and services, as well as directly provision, manage and support products and services.

Starting today Crayon can support the complete customer lifecycle. Crayon can now easily sell Microsoft cloud solutions and help customers drive new business value through the cloud by owning the entire billing process and directly managing support.

Empowered by its own IP, Crayon will support channel partners with three unique platforms:

  • CloudiQ: a one-stop-shop self-service portal (connected to Microsoft Office 365), where all of Microsoft's Cloud Suite Technology products can be created and provisioned in real time.
  • CORE (Center of Reseller Excellence): an enablement platform providing a one-stop resource environment for partners to ensure they are enrolled on the correct licensing framework.
  • Pulse: a comprehensive customer reward platform that rewards partners for working with Crayon by giving something back.
