RAPIDSCALE HAS SOLIDIFIED A PARTNERSHIP WITH CONVERGIA, A GLOBAL PROVIDER OF VOICE, DATA, AND INTERNET SERVICES

The partnership focuses on RapidScale delivering its market-leading cloud service platform for Convergia to sell and support clients globally.

[Irvine, CA: September 15th, 2015] RapidScale, a global leader in managed cloud solutions for business, has announced today that they have finalized a partnership agreement with Convergia, one of the largest privately held, end-to-end global providers of voice, data, and Internet services.

RapidScale and Convergia are working together to expand both companies’ capabilities in offering Cloud Services to accommodate international customers. The platforms Convergia will be utilizing for its global launch of Cloud Services include RapidScale’s Partner Certification Program www.RapidScaleUniversity.com, RapidScale’s Leadership and IT Education platform www.CloudServices.Education and its state-of-the-art Cloud Services Platform. RapidScale’s Cloud Services Platform, which Convergia will integrate into its portfolio, includes Desktop as a Service “CloudDesktop”, Microsoft Exchange “Enterprise CloudMail and SMB CloudMail”, Disaster Recovery as a Service “CloudStorage and CloudFailover”, and Infrastructure as a Service “CloudServer”.

RapidScale’s cloud solutions are backed by enterprise-level infrastructure and protected with government-grade security. Their fully managed offerings allow organizations to move to a worry-free environment with round-the-clock monitoring and 24x7x365 U.S.-based support. RapidScale’s virtual desktop environment boasts high-speed performance with full customizability for any size organization. With complete synchronization to a BYOD business model, a virtual environment can reduce an organization’s CapEx by nearly 56% annually.

Randy Jeter, CEO of RapidScale, sees this partnership as a true win for both companies. While Convergia is looking to complement their existing services portfolio, RapidScale is looking to expand its services, data centers, and market-leading Cloud Platforms throughout the world. The partnership also presents both companies with the opportunity to capitalize on the rapidly approaching demand for the Internet of Things “IoT” service provider model. Mr. Jeter says, “This is exciting for the future of Cloud as the one thing missing from great solutions platforms is often great services, which is what we are both committed to providing each and every customer.”

As an international technology integrator and provider, Convergia’s cutting-edge fiber optic network spans over 50 countries in four continents, connecting more than 150 points of presence, with a full portfolio of telecommunication services available in Argentina, Canada, Chile, Mexico, Peru, United States, Uruguay and Venezuela. Based in Montreal, they are part of a seven billion dollar group of companies that boasts over 6,000 employees in over 50 countries. Incorporating RapidScale’s cloud solutions will give them a competitive advantage in the marketplace as businesses across the globe begin to adopt the cloud.

RapidScale not only focuses on engineering the future of computing, but also follows a “We Care” philosophy that goes into every aspect of the business including the design, testing, and implementation processes. This approach is one of the reasons why Convergia chose RapidScale as their cloud services provider.
