Cloud Computing
As the business customer has to change to meet their consumers' needs so the channel needs to change. Vendors need to, and are, changing (SaaS, IaaS, and Utility), resellers need to adapt and evolve to prosper and therefore distribution must evolve to serve its consumers.
SDG Cloudware is a suite of tools, services and solutions designed to enable SDG's channel partners to deliver Cloud services. Cloudware is designed to help resellers through the different methodologies and scenarios of Cloud computing, ultimately to add value to a channel partner's journey to the Cloud.
As a strategic component of SDG's Channel Practice methodology, Cloudware is entirely a complementary service proposition made available only to SDG's channel partners.
Desktop Transformation Technologies
The basis of SDG’s end user computing (EUC) strategy is to enable our reseller community to deliver a wide range of solutions containing virtual desktop, application delivery and collaboration technologies to their customers…..In essence to offer a complete set of tools and services that removes all barriers for technology adoption.
Through the extensive SDG consulting team “Channel Practice”, resellers benefit from a “service on demand” model and utilise a team of certified consultants to help design and deploy the right solution for their customers’ needs.
SDG helps resellers address the challenge faced by corporate IT, that is the requirement to centralise and secure corporate data in line with governance, yet to enable that businesses users to connect to their corporate persona, application or data on any device, whether that be at home, work or on the move.
