The company announces the launch of its new Channel Partner Program to help deliver complex hosting solutions.

Logicworks, a provider of hosting solutions to support business-critical applications and content, announced the launch of its new Channel Partner Program, designed to provide the channel community with a range of managed database services, virtualization and  high-availability solutions. The company claims that the  program enables channel partners to offer a legitimate alternative to the commoditization of hardware and telecommunications services.  The company believes that leveraging its managed services platform and data center facilities, Partners can further support the delivery of their value-added solutions model to their clients.  In addition to technical expertise and support, the program features a recurring revenue-sharing business model to enable Channel Partners to start sharing in the rapid growth of the complex hosting sector.

The channel community provides an ideal platform for the company's services and 24x7 operational support. While the company  provides the operating infrastructure, supporting the elements of redundancy and availability, its Partners can provide support for the application layer, as well as client end-user support.

The company states that channel partners can extend a unique value proposition to their customers by offering managed database and hosting services in a 'nothing shared' environment for their mission critical data with their 'No Transactions Lost' guarantee. It offers an attractive residual revenue model with Partners for the life of the account which also covers upgrades. By combining this revenue sharing model with the highest quality of trusted service, Partners are able to facilitate new recurring revenue streams and grow profitably.

The company claims to offer exclusivity to all of its Partners—ensuring the highest levels of protection and trust for all referrals and leads. Partners may choose to private label the company's services through a Software-as-a-Service framework, by providing services to multiple clients in a single high-availability architecture, or by directly reselling its services.

"A partner program structured like Logicworks' is an attractive option for the channel community because it enables ISVs, VARs, systems integrators, IT consultants and resellers to capitalize on their customers' adoption of managed services, and build stable annuity-based revenue streams," said Benjamin S. Woo, Vice President, Enterprise Storage Systems, IDC and Logicworks Advisory Board member. "Logicworks' expertise in complex hosting and managed services provides Channel Partners and their clients a solid infrastructure on which to run their businesses."
