MSP Solutions Australia

Build a multi-vendor managed services practice with backup, endpoint protection, SaaS data protection, and secure file sharing from a single Australian distributor. Wholesale pricing, deal registration, and local support included.

The Problem

Australian MSPs are under pressure from two directions. Clients expect more services — backup, endpoint management, file sharing, compliance — while margins on traditional hardware resale continue to shrink. The answer is adding subscription-based services, but finding the right vendors is harder than it sounds.

Most enterprise vendors treat MSPs as an afterthought. Their products lack multi-tenancy, their licensing does not suit per-client billing, and their partner programmes are designed for large resellers, not growing service providers. You end up managing multiple vendor relationships, each with different portals, billing cycles, and support contacts.

What you actually need is a small number of vendors that are genuinely built for the MSP model, available through a single distributor who understands the Australian channel and can provide local pricing, local support, and a straightforward partner programme.

Common Triggers

Your margins on hardware resale are shrinking and you need recurring revenue streams

You are managing multiple vendor portals with different billing cycles and support channels

Clients are asking for backup and file sharing but you do not have a preferred supplier

You need multi-tenant management tools, not enterprise products shoehorned into MSP use

Your competitors are bundling backup and endpoint services and winning your prospects

Why This Matters to Your Business

The MSPs growing fastest in Australia are the ones building recurring revenue from subscription services, not chasing hardware deals.

Build Recurring Revenue

Every vendor in the CRS MSP stack is subscription-based. Per-user and per-workload licensing means your revenue grows with your clients. No more one-off hardware sales with eroding margins.

One Distributor, Multiple Vendors

Instead of managing four separate vendor relationships with different portals, billing, and support teams, CRS gives you a single point of contact. One invoice, one support desk, one partner programme.

Purpose-Built for the Channel

These are not enterprise products with a partner bolt-on. NAKIVO, Keepit, Cibecs, and UFSConnect all have genuine multi-tenancy, per-client billing, and MSP management consoles built into the product.

MSP-Ready Vendors

Four vendors selected specifically for MSP use cases. Each has genuine multi-tenancy, per-client billing, and management consoles designed for service providers.

How It Works Together

A typical CRS MSP partner starts with NAKIVO for VM and Microsoft 365 backup — the bread and butter of managed backup services. As clients ask for more, you add Keepit for broader SaaS coverage (Google Workspace, Salesforce, Dynamics 365), Cibecs for endpoint backup and PC migrations, and UFSConnect for secure file sharing.

Every product is licensed per-user or per-workload, so you can bill clients monthly and scale each service independently. One distributor relationship, one invoice, and one support team covers the lot.
