[July 07, 2010] Bitrix Unveils Enterprise 2.0 for the Cloud Tweet Jul 07, 2010 (Close-Up Media via COMTEX) -- Bitrix, Inc., a technology trendsetter in web business communications, announced the release of Bitrix Intranet Portal / Cloud Edition, a specially designed version of its Enterprise 2.0 software suitable for cloud deployment and rent-a-portal distribution model. The company said the initiative enables service providers to reinforce their service portfolio and maximize profits while customers can save up to 80 percent of intranet implementation costs. "The cloud is a challenging distribution channel for Enterprise 2.0 solutions. Service providers are constantly looking for new ways of increasing revenues, while their customers are searching for tools to create effective internal workspaces while streamlining financial, personnel, and hardware resources. The new edition of our flagship product is a perfect fit for both sides," said Dmitry Valyanov, President of Bitrix, Inc. According to a release, Bitrix Intranet Portal / Cloud Edition is a ready-to-go solution for small organizations with up to 50 users that prefer installation of the product on a service provider's premises. It allows customers to avoid most costs associated with additional software and hardware acquisition, product installation, and maintenance, making it ideal for even the least IT-savvy clients. In fact, customers only pay for the actual number of users and actual software usage. Finally, the Cloud edition minimizes concurrent risks of system downtime, data breach and data loss, as these issues are managed by the service provider. On the flip-side of the technology solution, this distribution of Bitrix Intranet Portal enables service providers to increase average revenue per user, creates a new source of recurring profits without increasing overhead, builds customer loyalty and attracts new customers to the core business. Selling Bitrix solutions lets service providers diversify business, bolster their product portfolios and enhance competitiveness by offering new, high-demand products. "Our new initiative creates an elegant technological foundation for bridging vital business-oriented products and end-users through service providers, thus creating a market-challenging distribution channel," said Nikolay Vasiliev, International Distribution Director at Bitrix.
