TriActive(R) Launches New Partner Program.TriMSP[TM] Partner Program Ushers in MSP (1) (Management Service Provider or Managed Service Provider) An organization that manages a customer's computer systems and networks which are either located on the customer's premises or at a third-party datacenter. 2.0 - Hosting Your Success[TM] AUSTIN, Texas -- TriActive, Inc., a pioneer in SaaS (Software-as-a-Service) for systems management, today announced a new partner program that enables Managed Service Providers (MSP) 2.0. In MSP 1.0, solution providers were expected to invest money to build a data center, define managed services An umbrella term for third-party monitoring and maintaining of computers, networks and software. The actual equipment may be inhouse or at the third-party's facilities, but the "managed" implies an ongoing effort; for example, making sure the equipment is running at a certain quality from scratch, and establish a profitable business. MSP 1.0 was more work, expense, and risk than the market could afford, but TriActive has a better answer. With MSP 2.0, the service provider does not have to make any upfront investment. With a subscription model, the partner pays only for what they use. This allows the service provider to focus on their customers instead of buying, building, and running an infrastructure. The TriMSP[TM] (TriActive[R] Managed Service Provider) partner program enables service providers to obtain all the advantages of managed services without the headaches.
