Miami, FL, May 20, 2011 --(PR.com)-- Equus Managed Services Solutions (www.equusmsp.com), North America’s largest system builder to the channel, has chosen the Autotask www.autotask.com Community Live event to launch its new Complete Managed Service offering to the channel. As part of its partnership with Autotask, Equus is committed to providing product/service integration, education, and solutions to enhance the Autotask community.

The Equus Managed Service Solution brings some of the industry’s best managed service products to partners, while also incorporating Hardware as a Service (HaaS). This creates a complete service solution that allows channel partners to provide a single monthly price for hardware, software, and services with absolutely no investments, all from a single source.

Frank Gurnee Vice President of Managed Services with Equus Managed Services Solutions stated, “We are excited to be a part of the Autotask Community Live event. It’s our goal to provide a truly affordable and partner-focused solution to the Channel. We have been able to provide a Managed Services and Hardware as a Service (HaaS) solution with no barrier of entry, low cost, high margins, early termination options, deployable onsite technician options, equipment buyout, and much more.”

The Equus Managed Service solution provides channel partners with a web e-commerce portal that allows easy configuration of servers, desktops, notebooks, infrastructure items, services, and peripherals in a user cart type experience. This allows managed service resellers to configure all aspects of the systems from RAM to Hard drives, to total custom configurations. All configurations are displayed with a monthly price, suggested retail price and recurring revenue profit. This advantage gives users the ability to see the profit potential of their entire service offering to their clients.

Equus has chosen best-of-breed products for the Managed Service Solution to make Equus the best overall value with competitive pricing, no minimum quantity requirements, no-commitment SaaS solutions, single-source billing, and services available a la carte. Some of the best-of-breed products include Remote Monitoring and Management (RMM) by LevelPlatforms.com, Help Desk by LivevHD.com, Backup Solutions by Intronis.com and Symform.com, Hosted Email Security/Compliance by Reflexion.net and ExchangeDefender.com, E-marketing solutions by Kutenda.com and Varvid.com, and NOC services.

Ted Roller with Intronis commented, “Intronis is excited to be a part of the new Equus managed service offering. We see this as a major win for the channel to have a partner that can not only bring best-in-class solutions, such as Intronis, but also provide managed service solutions with no minimums and no commitments, in a true month-to-month SaaS type model. Equus is value at its core.”
