Irvine, Calif. – February 5, 2018 – RapidScale, a leader in managed cloud services, announced today that CRN®, a brand of The Channel Company, has named RapidScale to its 100 Coolest Cloud Computing Vendors of 2018 list. This annual lineup recognizes the most innovative 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 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 services. RapidScale was chosen for its innovation in managed and hybrid managed cloud services delivered via a state-of-the-art global cloud platform, and its commitment to providing the best partner and client experience in the industry. “Cloud computing is now an integral part of doing business, and demand for solution providers who can deliver sophisticated, cloud-based technologies and services is at an all-time high,” said The Channel Company CEO Bob Skelley. “CRN’s annual list of 100 Coolest Cloud Computing Vendors helps channel partners meet this unprecedented demand by identifying top vendors who can help them grow and evolve their cloud businesses. We congratulate all the companies on our 2018 list for establishing themselves as leaders in this essential technology area.” RapidScale CEO and Co-founder Randy Jeter said, “The market pivot to managed cloud services is just starting to kick into high gear, taking cloud down a path that combines platform value with the client experience for SMB and small enterprise customers. The market opportunity will explode in years to come, which is exciting because the value of this recognition comes at an optimal time. It also speaks to our three-year CAGR of 81%, our less than 1% churn rate and the employees and partners who have gotten us here.” The new 100 Coolest Cloud Computing Vendors list will be featured in the February 2018 issue of CRN and online at www.crn.com/cloud100.
