SingleHop Launches Tandem Reseller Program: Redefining the Way Servers are Resold

CHICAGO, Feb. 10, 2010 — SingleHop, a leading Chicago-based dedicated and managed web hosting provider, today launched a groundbreaking new reseller program called Tandem.

With a name drawn from a skydiving maneuver in which divers are safely attached to an expert partner, the Tandem reseller platform is designed to give resellers ultimate scalability, control, and flexibility in their offerings by leveraging all of SingleHop's relationships and technologies.

Tandem extends all the power and capabilities of the data center to the reseller and their clients. This is done through a combination of SingleHop's industry-leading server management technologies – the LEAP platform – and a powerful online, desktop, and even mobile platform that resellers can offer their customers, the Tandem Panel, for the management of their servers. Tandem Panel offers resellers the ability to fully customize the access URL, look, feel and branding of the panel.

The Tandem system is built around three key pillars that are designed to help dedicated server resellers succeed. These pillars are:

Have More Control.

Tandem offers data-center grade server management systems to both the reseller and the end-user through:

  • Tandem Panel:  customized end-user server control panel accessible through web and mobile interfaces.
  • Live inventory feed, provisioning, and decommissioning.
  • Server control via LEAP, LEAPMobile and LEAPWidget. The LEAP system even allows resellers to install firewalls, manage RDNS, offer OS re-installs, reboot servers and other key server management and troubleshooting tasks.

Sell More Servers.

Sign-on benefits offered to resellers include:

  • Free Unlimited Globalsign SSL's (including Wildcard)
  • Free R1Soft CDP Agent
  • Free Banner Design
  • Free eFax Service
  • Free Advertising Credits
  • Free Demowolf Tutorials
  • Custom Branded Marketing Materials

Make Better Margins.

At the end of the day, Tandem is built to help resellers make more money regardless of their size. The system includes an intelligent pricing system, with a discount scale for servers, management, software and hardware that best fits the reseller's business profile. Furthermore, it offers a detailed marketing assistance program designed to maximize the server and data center information resellers can provide to their clients. Overall, extensive design customization features allow resellers to brand every aspect of their client's experience.

"We fully expect that Tandem will revolutionize the server reseller industry today," said Zak Boca, President and CEO of SingleHop. "SingleHop was founded on unprecedented customer service and industry innovation, and Tandem has evolved out of our commitment to those goals. Just the idea that a reseller could have data-center grade controls over their servers is exciting, but to combine that level of control with world-class service and offers from the best in the industry, and a fully customizable end-user platform that is accessible through web, desktop application, and mobile devices, is downright revolutionary. In a nutshell, that is what Tandem offers, and it is all backed up by SingleHop's 100% dedicated, individualized, and breakthrough technologies and service."
