Nerdio Launches Partner Program to Help MSPs Build Cloud Practices

Nerdio has a new partner program, as well as new certification courses for MSPs.

The company designed the new Nerdio “Partnerd” Program to help MSPs building successful cloud practices in Microsoft Azure and Windows Virtual Desktop (WVD). The program has four tiers – bronze, silver, gold and platinum – that all give access to the Nerdio partner portal. As members move up in tier status, more perks become available. These include all-inclusive VIP tickets to NerdioCon and monthly strategy calls with Nerdio leadership.

“We are incredibly excited to be launching our first-ever partner and certification programs,” said Joseph Landes, CRO of Nerdio. “We understand the challenges MSPs face when migrating to the cloud, and we’re always looking for new ways we can add value to the industry. The Nerdio Partnerd Program is the clear next step in helping our partners accelerate innovation within their businesses, get up to speed with Azure and WVD fundamentals, and establish regular touch points to ensure partners have everything they need to succeed.”

Platform Benefits

The platform gives MSPs a  wide range of benefits and resources. These include a complete asset library full of case studies, content white-labelling capabilities and testimonials. Partners can also take advantage of custom training sessions and monthly webinars. The company also provides them with a dedicated Nerdio “Go Live Engineer” to smooth partners’ paths to the cloud.

“We are thrilled to take advantage of Nerdio’s … Partnerd program,” said Michael Coopersmith, CEO of Integrated Technology Systems. “The learning curve for Microsoft Azure can be steep, but Nerdio makes it easy to get started and provides so many resources to help you build your cloud practice.”

Along with the partner program, Nerdio certification courses are now available to teach MSPs the core components of Nerdio and Microsoft Azure. The two certifications include Nerdio for Azure (NFA-100) and Nerdio Manager for MSP (NMM-200). These certifications are free for an MSP’s staff as they move up in Nerdio Partnerd program tiers. They take about two-to-four weeks to complete. Once participants pass the course, they can call themselves Nerdio Certified Engineers.

In addition to these new programs, Nerdio Manager for MSP (NMM) now is generally available, as are updates to the Nerdio Manager for MSP cost estimator tool.
