There are 8.6 Million Data Centers, peaking in 2017 and then will decline. source: IDC 2014

Over the next five years, a majority of organizations will stop managing their own infrastructuresource: IDC 2014

Servers & upgrades: costly & wasted capital compared to cloud

Data requirements & data protection needs: growing as your clients start using more data

Networking & associated security appliance deployments: are driving up networking costs

Data Center: Hardware Costs

Spending capital on servers, storage and networking gear is getting harder in the age of the cloud and the need for faster deployments and greater scale is increasing at a rapid pace. MSPs must adapt.

monitoring of individual client data centers is is getting harder without the cloud’s scalable and secondary environments to build and test on.

Data protection with DR and cloud based backup solutions is now a requirement and not a nice to have.

Data Center: Software Costs

The SaaS revolution and the ever growing requirements by businesses to analyze more data and automate more processes requires MSPs to deploy more software or add and subtract seats.

ProfitBricks had the right combination of price, performance, usability and support. The support and account management teams have always been so attentive to our needs. Initially, we viewed ProfitBricks as a cloud partner for replicating data centers, for those clients who were interested in disaster recovery. We quickly realized that on top of this the ProfitBricks solution falls in line with everything we want to do. Now we have one provider for everything.
