TDAzlan launches dedicated website for MSPs

May 13, 2015

Leading distributor makes it easy for managed services providers to take advantage of its dedicated team, lead generation and online vendor accreditation tools and resources

Basingstoke, 13 May 2015 – Azlan, the UK’s leading distributor for MSPs, has unveiled a dedicated website for managed services providers, featuring tools and resources that enable them to take full advantage of the in-depth expertise, lead generation and vendor accreditation support offered by Azlan’s expert team.

The website, which can be found a www.azlanmsp.com, provides comprehensive details of Azlan’s successful MSP Partner Programme, which gives partners access to a wide range of resources, including pre-sales technical advice, online training, advanced demonstration facilities and commercial and financial support.

It also provides direct access to Azlan’s exclusive lead generation and business development programme. The distributor is running a continuous marketing campaign aimed at driving end-user cloud leads, from both the commercial and public sectors, which are posted to the site. In addition to this the website’s Find an MSP search facility allows end users to locate an MSP with suitable services and accreditations to meet their needs.

This has already generated a number of leads for participating partners. Service providers can view their active leads and manage their vendor accreditations on the new website. They can also update their own profile, which new prospects will view when searching for a services provider.

Azlan works with more than 200 MSPs in the UK, around half of which are registered on the Azlan MSP Partner Programme and thus have full access to the new website and all its resources. Rob Tomlin, MSP Business Unit Director at Azlan UK, says that the updated website is just the latest development in a continuing investment programme.

“Azlan is firmly established as the leading value distribution partner for MSPs in the UK. We have a dedicated team of experts with in-depth understanding of key technologies for MSPs, close working relationships with leading vendors and market knowledge and experience that is second to none. We work with more MSPs on a month-to-month basis than any other UK distributor and our strong focus and proven expertise means Azlan is perfectly positioned to support MSPs as they look to grow and develop their businesses.

“This new, dedicated website is an embodiment of the energy, enthusiasm and investment we are making to ensure that Azlan continues to lead the way in supporting MSPs. We are seeing tremendous growth in the level of enquiries for managed services and we expect the opportunities to accelerate rapidly over the next 12 months. Azlan will continue to invest in and develop its services to ensure MSPs can maximise their potential.”

As the enterprise division of Tech Data, Azlan is uniquely positioned to support MSPs as they look to develop and grow their business. As well as its dedicated ten-strong MSP team, Azlan has access to qualified expertise in leading-edge compute, storage, network and software technologies from vendors such as Brocade, Cisco, Citrix, EMC, HP, IBM, Lenovo, Microsoft, Symantec, VMware, and Veeam.

Partners can also download the Azlan MSP Partner Brochure, which contains full details of the way Azlan works and how they can benefit from its expertise and services, and view detailed information on all the services and technologies available to them through the Azlan MSP business unit.

Azlan’s dedicated MSP team provides in-depth technical pre-sales and training as well as active business development support. The team works closely with MSPs to understand the requirements of their hosting model and business objectives and to design solutions that meet current and future needs.

In addition to these rare technical capabilities, Azan prides itself on delivering the best training available to MSPs in the EMEA region. It also offers partners the opportunity to see all vendor products in action, in person at its business solution centres or via remote demonstrations. MSPs can also make use of Tech Data’s StreamOne platform to provide fully integrated sales and billing, making it simple for them to swiftly and accurately compile invoices for their customers at the end of each month.

Azlan MSP partners are also invited to cloud briefing and update sessions throughout the year. These exclusive events provide an insight into current trends and developments and the opportunity to engage and interact with Azlan’s team and vendor partners. The next event is being held in London on Thursday 18th June – anyone wishing to attend can get more information and register at: http://techdataukinfo.co.uk/Email/APR162-15_Azlan_MSP/TD_azlan_eflash.html.
