ActivePlatform

ActivePlatform was first built to solve a problem for cloud sellers: how to offer many vendors' services to many customers without handling every order and invoice by hand. It is a cloud brokerage system that links vendors, service providers, resellers and customers in one ecosystem.

Automation from order to bill

The platform automates billing, invoicing and provisioning. Customers get a single point of management for their online services, and a service provider can launch popular SaaS, IaaS and its own services and send one consolidated bill. Vendors reach a global market through one integration, and ActivePlatform says that more than 30 cloud services are connected, among them Microsoft, VMware and Google.

Microsoft and VMware resellers

It is designed for distributors, resellers and Microsoft CSP partners, with automation covering Microsoft NCE, as well as VMware billing and provisioning. A multi-vendor marketplace lets resellers choose from a list of SaaS, IaaS and PaaS offerings with ready connectors, service plans and marketing content. Gartner identified ActivePlatform as a representative platform vendor in its cloud brokerage services platform category.

Stores and portals

Resellers can open a white-label, customisable online store for their own customers. Separate portals serve cloud service providers, multi-tier resellers, distributors and end customers.

Named deployments

Uztelecom, the largest telecommunications operator in Uzbekistan, used ActivePlatform with Huawei for commercial and government clouds. Softline, a global IT solutions and services provider, engaged it to support its multi-cloud business across emerging markets. The system is aimed at cloud providers, telecoms, data centres and government cloud operators, and is ISO/IEC 27001 certified and penetration tested.
