Our second-annual Talkin’ Cloud 50 survey ends April 27. Participate to see where your company ranks among the world’s top cloud services providers, cloud brokers, cloud aggregators, and VARs/MSPs working in cloud computing. Survey results will be unveiled in May 2012. Here are five reasons to complete the survey.1. Free Publicity: The Talkin’ Cloud 50 is the most widely read section of Talkin’ Cloud. Profiled companies earn bragging rights and more mind share within the cloud computing market. Plus, we link our website to all of the Talkin’ Cloud 50 company websites — lifting SEO rankings and driving traffic year-round to all of the honored companies.
The Talkin’ Cloud 50 survey is open to:
Cloud services providers (SaaS, IaaS, PaaS companies) that offer cloud services through channel partners or to end-customers.
Cloud aggregators that offer partners a range of cloud services from which to choose.
Cloud brokers and resellers that offer end-customers a range of cloud services from which to choose.
Cloud consultants that assist customers with SaaS, IaaS and PaaS deployments.
Cloud builders that help customers to deploy private clouds.
VARs and MSPs that sell, recommend or support cloud services for their end-customers.
2. Global Approach: The survey is open to all cloud services providers and channel partners working within cloud computing — worldwide.
3. Real Metrics: This isn’t a popularity contest. You share a few pieces of information about your company — we’ll keep the financial data confidential — and we use the data to see if your company ranks among the world’s top cloud services providers.
4. Real Results for All Participants: What if you fill out the survey but your company doesn’t land on the final Talkin’ Cloud 50 list? You can still email me privately (joe [at] NineLivesMediaInc [dot] com), and I’ll tell you exactly where your company ranked compared to all of our survey participants.
5. Real Expertise: Our editorial team has extensive experience running surveys such as this, having helped to shape the InformationWeek 500 more than a decade ago, while also building out the MSPmentor 100 each year over the past five years. And now, we’re enjoying the process of working with readers on our second-annual Talkin’ Cloud 50 survey.
6. Bonus: The Talkin’ Cloud 50 results will be unveiled during our May 16 Channel Expert Hour webcast. All honored companies will be mentioned during the live, online industry event. And we’ll share key data points and trend culled from the survey results.
We look forward to sharing the Talkin’ Cloud results during the webcast. But to earn your potential slot in our year-long spotlight, you need to complete the survey before the April 27 deadline arrives.
