At the ConnectWise Partner Summit today, managed service provider Network Management Group Inc. (NMGI) and Zlago, a provider of cloud-based Microsoft applications and services, will announce a strategic partnership to form a master VAR relationship to enable resellers to deliver cloud apps to the accounting market.
According to the joint announcement, NMGI will resell Zlagoās applicationsāincluding Microsoft Exchange and Office apps, virtual servers, VoIP, and business applicationsāto its existing customer base. NMGI will also develop a consulting practice with Zlago to enable solution providers to adopt and deliver cloud solutions to their customers. And NMGI will serve as a “master VAR” through which it will recruit partners to deliver Zlago cloud applications to the accounting vertical.
“We believe Zlago will be one of our most significant vendor partnerships as we move into 2010 and the cloud services market continues to gain momentum,” said NMGI CEO Steve Harper. “Zlago is a single-source provider for a broad range of world-class services, and that is a compelling value proposition for us and our partners.”
