"Until now, the costs and level of effort required to move applications to the cloud have off-set projected savings. Automating that effort alters the equation of using the public Cloud as an extension of the data center."
AppZero ISV Accelerator Package
Instantly deliver demos and PoCs to sell more software
Description
AppZero will offer qualified ISVs a low cost, shared-risk package that includes :
1.) professional services to encapsulate an ISV application into a VAA (virtual application appliance),
2.) perpetual right to use that VAA to deliver demonstrations and proof of concepts (POC) to prospective clients,
3.) support for one year,
4.) a provision to apply package costs to any follow-on agreement .
Purpose
Offering a low cost, fixed rate packaging of product and services, the Accelerator Package is designed to kick start an ISVs experience of instant provisioning of demos and POC. We anticipate that software vendors will become attached to the positive impact of AppZero technology on their business model and the quantitative savings that we enable, leading to increased adoption. However, there is no requirement to do so. This package is a hybrid of license, professional services, and support to simultaneously deliver a POC and initial implementation, as well as provide training to technical support staff.
Requirements for ISV participation
ISVs interested in taking advantage of this offer will need to complete a brief qualification form. We will make certain that there is a good match between the target application/ecosystem and our platform coverage/ capabilities. If the fit is good, we will look for some baseline information about your business, products, customer demographics, and intended use.
We will develop a mutually agreed upon implementation plan, including resources and timing for both parties. And then, we’re partners, sticking to this plan, delivering as promised. The reasoning is simple: This high value offering requires the time and resource investment of both parties to be successful.
The cost is $4,995.
