SYNNEX Corporation (NYSE:SNX), a leading business process services
company, today launched the SYNNEX software-as-a-service (SaaS) portal
to support the adoption of SaaS applications throughout the reseller
community. The SYNNEX SaaS portal offers resellers the ability to
provision the usage of software as a hosted offering for their end
customers and provides the flexibility to manage all aspects of the
procurement cycle in a dynamic, real-time environment.
During its National Sales Conference, taking place in Greenville, South
Carolina during October 7-9, 2009, SYNNEX will host breakout sessions
outlining the capabilities of the new SYNNEX SaaS portal and will offer
live demonstrations illustrating the ease-of-use and flexibility of the
web tool.
Capabilities available through the SYNNEX SaaS portal are:
-
Quote on Demand – Offering VARs an automatically generated web-quote
of the MSRP and associated cost with a transaction.
-
Contract Creation and Customization in a centralized online
environment - Allowing VARs to adapt their end user’s environment in
real-time.
-
Aggregation point for more than 10 hosted software-plus-service
solutions.
-
Multiple "bill to” options with automated capture of end user usage.
SYNNEX continues to make significant investments in strategic
initiatives, such as the development of robust tools to support the
adoption of SaaS, which clearly differentiates the Company from its
competition and enables its resellers to pursue incremental
opportunities. SYNNEX offers a one-stop management console, with the
development of the SYNNEX SaaS portal, to support the evolution of SaaS.
With a dedicated SaaS team, SYNNEX is well equipped to assist resellers
through the entire SaaS adoption and procurement process.
"We view SaaS as a strategic opportunity for meaningful, incremental
sales for our VAR community as the environment for how we procure
software shifts from a traditional on-premise offering to a Cloud
environment,” stated Peter Larocque, President of U.S. Distribution at
SYNNEX Corporation. "When we developed the SYNNEX SaaS portal, our goal
was to make it as easy as possible for our solutions providers to buy
all of their SaaS applications from one source and be able to provide
one consolidated bill to their end customers. We accomplished this goal
with this tool.”
