Over the years, the demand for hosting cloud-based products on cloud marketplaces has increased dramatically. Many CXOs have turned to cloud marketplaces to buy and implement advanced technology solutions. According to Jay McBain, Forrester’s principal analyst of channel, partnerships, and ecosystems, 73% of B2B buyers report that buying through eCommerce, web direct, or marketplace is very convenient.
A cloud marketplace provides numerous opportunities for interactions among the sellers and buyers while streamlining the buying and deploying process through one portal without worrying about stagnating sales and stock holdings. The three biggest Cloud service Marketplaces today are AWS Marketplace (Amazon), Azure Marketplace (Microsoft), and GCP Marketplace (Google).
Advantages of buying IT products and solutions from cloud marketplaces
The huge amount of time needed to ship, finance, and procure software products has considerably changed the buying scenario. Today, cloud marketplaces offer flexibility, easy deployment options (in the form of APIs, SaaS, and containers), customized consumption models (by free trials, annual contracts, pay-as-you-go), and flexible billings.
With these benefits, the adoption of cloud Marketplaces among IT and AI-driven companies have skyrocketed. Some of the additional advantages of cloud marketplaces are.
Quick purchase: Cloud Marketplaces do not adhere to traditional buying cycles, which trims down the buying time from months to days or sometimes minutes. A buyer can directly buy the product on the cloud vendor’s terms without undergoing legal and procurement hassles. The invoice is integrated with the cloud bill.
Low overheads: As a buyer, you can find a plethora of technology solutions, including speech recognition and other AI-enabled contact center solutions in one place. This eases the burden of finding solutions from different vendors, thereby helping you find the cost-effective prices for the best software offering.
Why should you rely on cloud Marketplace for finding relevant technology solutions and products?
Every cloud marketplace has a rich portfolio of offerings, including products and enterprise SaaS-based solutions from third-party independent software vendors (ISV) certified to run on cloud platforms. A broad range of solutions on such marketplaces includes security, AI, analytics, automation, and speech recognition for various industries. You may even refine your search using filters and keywords.
Microsoft Azure is one of the largest Cloud Service Marketplaces that lists products in such a way that it tells buyers or prospects how a particular product/solution can positively impact business operations. The listing shows the features, benefits, and customer testimonials to validate the claims from vendors. Besides, buyers can filter sellers offering “free trial” or “test drive” options on their products.
