SkyKick, a Seattle-based cloud management software provider, announced today the launch of its new Cloud Management-as-a-Service product category. 
CMaaS is designed to help IT solution providers manage cloud-based applications from a unified platform through migration, backup and central management capabilities for cloud products including Dropbox and Office 365.
“We are excited to usher in the next era for SkyKick—a global software company delivering cloud management solutions for partners,” said Todd Schwartz, SkyKick co-founder and co-CEO. “Cloud usage is expected to double in the next three years, and the average IT partner will soon have over 5,000 customer cloud touch points to administer, which can be incredibly complex and time-consuming for solution providers to backup and manage. With the release of our new cloud management products, it’s another step forward for us in delivering innovative products to help partners around the world provide a more successful, efficient and safe cloud experience for their customers on one unified platform.”
The new product line includes SkyKick Cloud Backup, Cloud Manager and Cloud Migration Suites. SkyKick also announced it secured $10 million in strategic funding and will use the capital to accelerate product development and expand sales and marketing globally.
