Nutanix, a global provider of private, hybrid and multi-cloud computing solutions, has announced the launch of the Nutanix Elevate Service Provider Programme, further extending the benefits of the Elevate Partner Programme to now include service providers globally.
The programme empowers service provider partners – including managed and cloud service providers – to build highly-differentiated hybrid and multi-cloud services delivering increased profitability and faster time-to-market.
As many organisations look for opportunities to simplify their IT operations, IDC forecasts the managed cloud services market to grow to US$101.1 billion by 2024. With this opportunity, comes the challenge of service providers meeting increasingly individualised customer demands while staying profitable. The Nutanix Elevate Service Provider Programme helps service providers improve margins and agility by addressing the lock-in and minimum commitment requirements encountered in traditional service provider vendor models and programmes.
“As the demand for managed and cloud services surges, service providers are uniquely positioned to assist an organisation’s growth, optimisation initiatives and Digital Transformation needs,” said Christian Alvarez, SVP Worldwide Channels, Nutanix. “Through the Nutanix Elevate Service Provider Programme, we are rewarding our partners’ commitment in delivering high value IT cloud service offerings and helping them maximise profitability and increase their revenue growth potential through premium offerings.”
The service provider programme adds two partnership levels to Nutanix Elevate: Authorised Service Provider and Professional Service Provider. Authorised Service Providers will include partners new to Nutanix or those delivering Nutanix services to small to mid-market organisations, while Professional Service Provider will deliver differentiated services for enterprise organisations. Partners who join the programme will be able to take advantage of all the benefits outlined in the Elevate Service Provider Programme Guide including training, Not For Resale (NFR) and Nutanix XLAB software licences and enablement support. Professional Service Provider partners will be able to take advantage of expanded support from Nutanix including marketing materials, potential market development funds (MDF), sales tools, goal-based financial incentives and rebates, and personalised insights in Nutanix’s Partner Portal.
Key advantages of Nutanix Solutions and Elevate Service Provider Program include:

- Simplicity: A hallmark of Nutanix solutions, and a key driver behind the company’s average NPS score of 90 for the last seven years, is simplicity.
