To expand its channel-centric marketplace for cloud services via its SaaS (News - Alert) delivery platform in the fast growing Southeast Asian market, LuxCloud is looking to develop strong partnerships in the region as part of its overall globalization plan. The company has just inked a collaborative agreement with Jatis, a company founded in 1997 with offices in Indonesia, Singapore, Kuala Lumpur and Manila. This partnership will bring out the best solutions from both companies and will benefit all their customers by fulfilling new demands and providing innovative services such as Office 365.

LuxCloud’s SaaS delivery platform provides automation of billing and offers full provisioning of SaaS services. The company’s offerings include a full range of Microsoft (News - Alert) Hosted Services, as well as a growing range of commodity, proprietary and open source software applications. The firm’s newest product is coined Hosted365 and is a compilation of cloud services in a securely hosted desktop with Web-based versions of Microsoft Office programs. Further, this portfolio comes with full support for Microsoft Exchange, Microsoft SharePoint, Microsoft Lync and Microsoft Office Web Apps. Jatis customers that were requesting subscription-based cloud services as opposed to the more traditional license models are sure to be extremely overjoyed in regards to this partnership.

Marco Houwen, founder and CEO of LuxCloud said in a statement, “It is my great pleasure to be announcing this partnership with The Jatis Group, both companies have valuable strengths and knowledge that can be shared to create a unique value proposition to small and medium enterprises (SMEs), across the South East Asian region. What we are going to present will impact greatly on the market, and within the cloud industry as a whole.”

Over time, Jatis will be migrating all its applications to the cloud and bundle them along with LuxCloud’s solutions for the Southeast Asian market. Jusuf Sjariffudin, CEO of The Jatis Group concluded, “Jatis customers are always looking for new solutions to improve their businesses, working with the LuxCloud team and their portfolio means in the future we will provide highly effective business tools at a competitive price. Southeast Asia is a market that is quickly growing, wanting the latest technologies; together Jatis and LuxCloud will meet this demand.”
