Resello, a ‘cloud native’ distributor and official provider of Acronis solutions supporting over 2.500 active resellers in over 100 countries worldwide, has launched a new go-to-market proposition aimed at WHMCS users. WHMCS is the automation platform used by over 40,000 web hosting companies worldwide.

The new Acronis proposition aimed specifically at WHMCS users offers them an updated WHMCS module that adds the newly released Acronis Cyber Protect. The new WHMCS module is combined with personal account management, intended to quickly scale the partners’ backup and cyber protection business up from scratch to a profitable recurring revenue base.

“By launching this new proposition specifically for WHMCS users, Resello and Acronis are able to offer them a full suite of data protection and cyber protection services they can sell, all automated via the Acronis Cyber Cloud module for WHMCS,” said Martijn Kamphuis, Product Manager at Resello.

“Organizations using WHMCS are used to selling subscription model services in a recurring revenue model. Managing services and supporting their SMB customers is in their DNA,” said Martijn Kamphuis, Product Manager at Resello. “These companies are also seeing a rise in demand for services beyond just web hosting. But while the market demand for data protection and other cyber protection solutions is definitely growing, that part of the market was previously harder for WHMCS user to service. By launching this new proposition specifically for WHMCS users, Resello and Acronis are able to offer them a full suite of data protection and cyber protection services they can sell, all automated via the Acronis Cyber Cloud module for WHMCS.”

Resello’s automation platform is built to accelerate digital transformation. It would help ISVs, VARs, MSPs, systems integrators and web hosting providers run their cloud businesses.

“Acronis recently launched Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud, an AI-powered integration of data protection and cyber protection,” said Mathijs Theunissen, Strategic Partner Manager for Benelux and Nordics at Acronis. “As one of our valued distribution partners, Resello has already made Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud available to all its partners, and by launching this new proposition, we are happy to say WHMCS users can also start benefiting from new opportunities for recurring revenue by offering cyber protection to their customers.”

Acronis Cyber Protect

With Acronis Cyber Protect, MSPs can proactively avoid cyberattacks, minimize downtime, ensure “fast and easy” recoveries, and automate the configuration of client protection to counter the latest cyberthreats. This would not only result in improved margins and profitability, but also add easier SLA compliance and greater performance. The WHMCS module for selling Acronis has also been updated and now supports the full Acronis Cyber Cloud suite, including the new Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud.

“By lowering the minimum monthly usage fee requirements, Acronis provides WHMCS users an easy way to start offering new data protection and cyber protection solutions including Acronis Cyber Backup Cloud,” added Mr. Kamphuis. “The release of an updated version of the WHMCS module for Acronis adds Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud to that offering. And as distributor we work closely with both our partners and Acronis to help our partners grow their cyber protection business.”
