KASEYA ANNOUNCES SUCCESSFUL COMPLETION OF MSPALLIANCE VENDOR ACCREDITATION PROGRAM
Kaseya joins vendor-neutral program for benchmarking service-enabling technology vendors worldwide
Kaseya, a global provider of information technology (IT) automation software for IT solution providers and corporate IT organizations, today announced it has received accreditation under the MSPAlliance’s (MSPA) Vendor Accreditation Program (VAP). VAP is the first program of its kind, specifically designed by managed service providers (MSPs) as a benchmark for vendors who sell to the MSP community. Vendors who bear the VAP seal show they abide by the highest principles of quality in areas such as financial stability, positive channel practices, product research and development and MSP customer satisfaction.
VAP was created using a wide base of criteria considered as critical by MSPs when selecting a vendor. Criteria examined during the accreditation process include:
• Business practices: Focusing on channel development, channel competition safeguards and experience in the managed services industry.
• Product roadmap: Examining the vendor’s willingness to invest in their products to ensure continued relevance for the MSPs on a continued basis.
• Financial: Examination of financial stability to ensure adequate support of channel initiatives and product development.
• Client references: Vendor must provide at least three MSP-specific client references.
Kaseya will be at MSPWorld Orlando, April 30-May 1, 2009 at the Walt Disney World Dolphin Resort. Sponsored by the MSPAlliance, MSPWorld Orlando provides information for managed service professionals on the latest technologies and best practice business tips. To schedule an appointment with a Kaseya representative, please contact sales@kaseya.com.
