Sage the market leader in cloud business management solutions, announced the expansion of the Sage Partner Cloud.
To enable Sage partners to successfully move customers to the cloud at a pace that suits their business, Sage has added to the program two new strategic hosting providers, Cloud at Work and Swizznet, and extended availability to Sage construction and real estate customers.

The program includes Sage 100, Sage 300, and now both Sage 100 Contractor and Sage 300 Construction and Real Estate (CRE), enabling partners to better support the journey to the cloud for their customers.
With the addition of Sage CRE solutions to the suite of ERP products available through Sage Partner Cloud, customers in the construction and real estate space now have an easier path to the cloud while keeping the products they currently use.
With this program expansion, Sage partners can opt to leverage Sage-accredited cloud hosting providers as they deploy customers to cloud-hosted Sage business management solutions. Beginning with providers Cloud at Work and Swizznet, a third-party hosting infrastructure offers flexibility and choice by leveraging providers who have been vetted by Sage.

Bob Hollander, President and CEO of Swizznet, adds:
“It is increasingly important for partners to deploy customers to the cloud at pace. That is exactly the goal of Swizznet’s partnership with Sage via the Sage Partner Cloud as a strategic hosting provider. This program gives partners even more flexibility, further removing barriers along the customer journey to the cloud.”
First launched in December 2020, Sage Partner Cloud provides multiple options for access to the program and its benefits with this expansion. In addition to the choice of using a hosting provider, Sage Partner Cloud also empowers business partners to become a managed services provider for their customers. The managed services program is powered by the Sage Provisioning Portal on the Microsoft Azure cloud platform.
Sage Partner Cloud, including the existing Sage Provisioning Portal on Microsoft Azure and the new Strategic Hosting Provider model, will be available in other markets over the coming months.
