How Pax8 took the UK by storm

Phylip Morgan, Pax8 EMEA Chief Revenue Officer

One year has passed since Pax8 simplified the cloud in the UK.

A year has passed since Pax8 first launched in the UK, empowering UK-based partners to buy, sell, and manage cloud products simply and effectively. Pax8 has already made waves in the UK channel and continues to help increasing numbers of MSPs transform their cloud business. Let’s look back at what Pax8 accomplished during our first year in the UK.

On Cloud 8

Pax8 is growing – fast. Since launching in the UK, we’ve partnered with a large range of vendors whose products and services can be combined to give end users the most reliable and secure online user experience. Now, you can combine the powers of Microsoft, Axcient, Acronis, Dropsuite and a variety of other vendors to provide your clients’ businesses with thorough cyber protection. The vendors available to Pax8 partners in the UK are growing on a monthly basis — now is the time to address your clients’ pain-points and priorities by building your personalised stack with Pax8.

Our partners’ ability to harness the benefits of multiple vendors has proven popular to the UK MSP community. MSPs are drawn to the simplified provisioning, management and billing facilitated by Pax8, with the option of benefitting from the additional insights, value, and time-effectiveness available through professional services.

We’re Making Partners’ Lives Easier

We’re already making our partners’ businesses run more smoothly. Partnering with Pax8 is more than just a practical arrangement —we’ll work together to alleviate the stress and busyness that comes from outdated and impractical systems. The Pax8 team are passionate, knowledgeable, and driven to support MSP businesses as they continue to grow and succeed. As Roman Marszalek, Founder and Managing Director of Doctor Logic, says, ‘There’s no point working with a stagnated company that’s not interested in improving because their offering works in that given moment.’ Pax8 knows the value of constantly moving forward. Our quarterly feedback campaigns enable us to shape the partner experience in a way that’ll be most beneficial to the partner.

“Finally, a cloud distributor that does everything an MSP needs. [The Pax8 Platform] is simple to use, integrates easily with your PSA, has excellent support, and offers professional services. What more do you want!”
-Warren Pountain (CEO, OneByte)

Making Waves in the Channel

The Pax8 UK event team spent a considerable amount of time both online and on the road throughout 2021. From Manchester to London, the Pax8 UK team was on a mission to connect with MSPs and help them to make full and seamless use of the cloud. There’s always an event to look forward to at Pax8.

Pax8 was also announced as the Acronis #CyberFit Partner as part of the renewed 2021 Cyber Protection Partnership between Williams Racing and Acronis. George Russell, former F1 Driver for Williams Racing, expressed his support for Pax8 and encouraged MSPs to attend a Mission Briefing to learn more about the latest cross-sell and up-sell strategies.

Moreover, in October 2021, Pax8 won a significant award at CompTIA’s 2021 UK Spotlight Awards in the Innovative Distributor category. As Robert Belgrave, CEO of Pax8 UK notes, it is our ‘industry-leading technology, innovative solutions and enablement program that empowers our partners to succeed.’ Chloe Cameron, VP of Operations at Pax8 UK, also received an Advancing Women in Technology Spotlight Award. Winners, shortlisted nominees, and those selected for commendations are recognised specifically for commitment, professionalism, and leadership in assisting CompTIA in growing the tech business in the UK.
