JumpCloud Inc. and Electric announced a joint
partnership to bring secure and affordable
enterprise-grade technology to small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs).
Electric, serving over 55,000 end users, is one of the latest large partners
joining JumpCloud's managed service provider
(MSP) program,
which spans 60 countries. JumpCloud enters the Electric Partner Program, bringing enterprise IT tech to the SMB
market.
Both companies are actively evaluating new partnerships for each of their
programs.
Electric
is in R&D with JumpCloud's device and identity management technology,
preparing early access to a select group of customers to test the financial and
accessibility benefits of the two companies' integration. JumpCloud's
enterprise-grade identity, access, and device management capabilities, bundled
with Electric's seamless IT support and management capabilities, allow SMBs to
focus on their mission rather than IT.
JumpCloud
reimagined the directory to fit the modern world with an open, cloud-based
directory for secure, frictionless access from any authorized device to any
resource, anywhere. Electric makes technical and often complex initiatives such
as security standardization, device management, software provisioning, and
employee IT support manageable in one easy-to-use platform.
"The
JumpCloud and Electric partnership pairs the best of both for SMBs with limited
or no in-house IT teams with affordable, progressive IT capabilities - enabling
a whole new generation of companies to take advantage of the cloud," said
Antoine Jebara, co-founder and general manager of MSP products, JumpCloud.
"We're excited to have Electric join our partner program and design their
next-generation offerings around the JumpCloud platform. Our partnership will
enable SMBs with enterprise-level security, allowing them to focus on their
mission and scale their companies."
"Electric
and JumpCloud are teaming up to start R&D on a cutting-edge
enterprise-level identity, access, and device management system specifically
designed for SMBs," says Joe Fahrner, Chief Revenue Officer, Electric.
"Combining our strengths, both commercially and through our product development,
brings crucial enterprise security systems within reach of businesses that
previously lacked the internal resources to handle them."
