CliQr, the leading enterprise cloud management platform provider, announced today that CRN, a brand of The Channel Company,
has named CliQr to its 2016 100 Coolest Cloud Computing Vendors list.
This annual lineup recognizes the most innovative and effective cloud
technology suppliers in each of five categories: infrastructure,
platforms and development, security, storage and software.
The 100 Coolest Cloud Computing Vendors are selected by the
CRN editorial team for their creativity and innovation in product
development, the quality of their services and partner programs, and
their demonstrated ability to help customers benefit from the ease of
use, flexibility, scalability and budgetary savings that cloud computing
offers.
In addition to recognizing cloud technology suppliers for
outstanding products and services, 100 Coolest Cloud Computing Vendors
also serves as a valuable guide for solution providers trying to
navigate the cloud market. The list aids prospective channel partners in
identifying the vendors that can best help them improve or expand their
cloud service offerings.
CliQr is recognized for its ability to create new levels of
portability and manageability by de-coupling applications from the
complexities of the underlying cloud by leveraging each cloud's unique
best practices. CliQr's CloudCenter delivers full lifecycle management,
cloud independence, enterprise class scalability, multi-tenancy and
security and fast time-to-value with its intuitive platform.
"Cloud-based solutions have become an indispensable and
fast-growing part of today's IT infrastructure. The demand for solution
providers who can deliver these technologies and services is now higher
than ever," said Robert Faletra, CEO, The Channel Company. "CRN's annual
list of 100 Coolest Cloud Computing Vendors helps solution providers
find and engage with the suppliers who can best support them, either
during the critical transition to the cloud or in the improvement and
expansion of their existing cloud offerings."
"We're honored to be named to CRN's 2016 100 Coolest Cloud
Computing Vendors list. CliQr's inclusion firmly validates our
application-centric approach to cloud migration and management, which we
have seen resonate with the market over the past year," said David
Cope, executive vice-president and CMO of CliQr. "Businesses realize
that the true promise of the cloud lies in users' ability to fluidly
move and manage applications to and across a variety of data centers and
private and public clouds, depending on workload criteria. And this
promise is exactly what CliQr was founded to do."
The new 100 Coolest Cloud Computing Vendors list will be featured in the February 2016 issue of CRN and online at www.crn.com/cloud100.
