Sub: Deliver CiviCRM in the cloud today with zero up-front costs and launch your cloud applications business!

Over the past year, Stratus5 has developed and launched a full-service cloud business platform that enables open source application providers migrate their applications to the cloud and operate an end-to-end SaaS / On-Demand business.

Companies such as vtiger (leading open source CRM), Openbravo (leading open source ERP), and Twiki (leading open source wiki) are some of the leading open source vendors that are currently leveraging the Stratus5 platform for hosting and managing their cloud applications business. Additionally, several application resellers are reselling open source applications using the Stratus5 platform and deriving significant benefits of extending their business into the cloud.

We have recently deployed CiviCRM on our platform and we are currently on-boarding resellers that want to offer CiviCRM as a one-click On-Demand solution to their customers. With Stratus5,  resellers can deliver CiviCRM in the Cloud instantly and with zero upfront costs, reach a broader market and gain recurring application subscription revenue. You can also drive additional revenue opportunities by reselling other open source applications available on the Stratus5 Platform.

With our implementation each customer gets a separate instance of WordPress, Joomla or Drupal with CiviCRM that can be customized as required thus facilitating your services business. For every customer that registers for CiviCRM from your website you will get the vast majority of the monthly recurrent revenue. Our platform contains in-built billing functionality and all transactions are settled automatically with reseller funds due automatically transferred to a bank account of your choice.
