Acronis has unveiled its latest game-changing innovation, the Acronis CyberApp Standard. This advancement represents a significant expansion of their ecosystem to welcome third-party vendors, ushering in a new era of seamless integration for their products and services within Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud. This move equips service providers with essential tools to boost efficiency and profitability.
The Acronis CyberApp Standard stands out as the sole framework that facilitates a deep integration of vendor offerings into the Acronis platform. It seamlessly incorporates vendor workloads, alerts, widgets, and reports. The result is a unified user experience for both Acronis-owned and integrated applications, elevating operational efficiency and reducing errors. The unique characteristics of the Acronis CyberApp Standard provide vendors with a hands-off digital experience and comprehensive application lifecycle management, setting it apart from other platforms.
For vendors interested in becoming a part of the Acronis ecosystem, the versatile Vendor Portal offers a gateway. This portal empowers vendors to create applications, share crucial application details, upload marketing materials, and publish directly to the Acronis Application Catalog.
Gaidar Magdanurov, President at Acronis, emphasized the significance of seamless integration for service providers, stating, “Service providers require seamless integration between tools to stay agile and competitive. Due to these integrations, they can manage fewer tools more efficiently and with less chance of human error.”
With the introduction of the Acronis CyberApp Standard, technology vendors unlock vast sales and marketing opportunities. They gain access to a network of over 100 distributors and 50,000 channel partners. This leads to accelerated time-to-market for integrated solutions, as the Acronis ecosystem simplifies complexity and leverages more than 50 data centers. This, in turn, allows vendors to provide solutions that comply with various local regulations.
Phil Goodwin, Research Vice President at IDC, emphasized the importance of a comprehensive technology ecosystem, saying, “A comprehensive technology ecosystem is a critical success factor to meeting the diverse needs of small, medium, and large MSPs. Service providers with various software integration needs may benefit from cutting-edge integration solutions like CyberApp Standard.”
Furthermore, technology vendors can reap significant benefits from partnering with Acronis through the #CyberFit Technology Partner Program. This program fosters collaboration on joint sales and marketing opportunities. Partners can work together on go-to-market strategies, co-branded campaigns, and product assets. It also offers valuable marketing and sales guidance, along with access to MDF (Market Development Funds) to further enhance their business endeavors.
Acronis has taken a monumental step in shaping the future of cyber protection with the introduction of the Acronis CyberApp Standard. This innovation promises to open new doors for vendors and service providers, offering them a unique opportunity to thrive in an increasingly competitive landscape.
