To support organizations looking to more efficiently manage their cloud offerings, leading managed service provider Logicalis US launched an online marketplace, CloudCentralis. The self-service platform enables Logicalis customers to seamlessly manage their cloud services, beginning with Microsoft offerings including Microsoft 365 and Azure, with support for additional vendors to follow later this year. Through CloudCentralis, users can monitor and optimize their cloud subscriptions all in one place to help meet and scale business needs with greater efficiency.
Available now, the web-based marketplace includes a self-service management portal that allows organizations to access and review licensing availability, budgets, and real-time usage reporting, ensuring full transparency into their cloud programs. Dashboards are customizable based on an individual users' role, and authority and can be personalized to each company. Logicalis's proven professional and managed services expertise will continue to support the deployment and management of services in CloudCentralis.
Microsoft is the initial vendor available through CloudCentralis, underscoring the two companies' longstanding partnership. As an Azure-expert MSP and Gold Certified Partner, Logicalis can provide global expertise for Azure-based lifecycles, as well as specialized knowledge across other Microsoft business units. With CloudCentralis, Logicalis combines best-in-class managed and professional services with easy-to-use program management.
CloudCentralis is available now for Microsoft offerings, with plans to expand the marketplace to additional vendors later this year, and offer organizations a truly comprehensive cloud management system.

It's a game changer for Logicalis and our customers.
