Pax8 launches Pax8 Tech for Nonprofit program

Cloud marketplace Pax8 has launched a new global program to help managed services providers (MSP) support nonprofit organisations, Pax8 Tech for Nonprofit.

The company said the program "will provide tailored solutions that are easily accessible, affordable and integrated by Pax8 partners," noting nonprofit organisations "remain an untapped and underserved market for potential software spend and adoption."

Pax8 Tech for Nonprofit will include solutions from Microsoft, Dropsuite, MailGuard 365, Ironscales and BitTitan, with "additional vendors added consistently."

The program will also provide enablement resources to Pax8 partners that serve or want to begin serving nonprofit customers.

“We are thrilled to provide deeper support for our partners and the nonprofit organisations they serve,” said Nikki Meyer, corporate VP of vendor alliances at Pax8.

“We currently transact with over 12,000 nonprofits through our ecosystem and are dedicated to increasing that number. Through this program, we will provide world-class SaaS solutions to nonprofits globally, helping to grow their impact.”

Pax8 said it is forming nonprofit community groups across North America and EMEA, with Asia Pacific to follow.

“Working with Pax8 really enables us to set a standard that we can now take to market and scale,” said Ian Groves, managing director of Start Tech, a UK-based service provider.

“The nonprofit program enables us to be strategic leaders for the nonprofits we support. It raises the bar across the whole industry to have Pax8 lead the way.”

Pax8 said the program builds on the success of the existing partnership between Pax8 and Microsoft’s Tech for Social Impact Program.

“This is really an aggregation point for MSPs committed to supporting their nonprofit customers,” said Eric Roach, SVP of sales and marketing at Dropsuite.

“Pax8 will provide important training, deal support, and exclusive offers, ensuring MSPs are positioned to provide the same experience they do for their other clients to this important business segment.”
