We’re proud to announce new additions to our ongoing ‘as-a-service’ programme. The first is an industry leading Finance-as-a-Service offering that enables partners’ customers to spread the cost of their cybersecurity investments via affordable, fixed payments over a flexible period, eliminating the need for upfront lump-sum payments. The second is a bespoke PR-as-a-Service programme. We have partnered with agencies that have a wealth of experience in channel and cybersecurity who can offer a cost-effective monthly retainer, alongside the option for bespoke services based on a vendor and partner’s needs.
These latest offerings come hot on the heels of our incubation service, in partnership with Colition, announced earlier this year. Together, the growing list of services allows us to go beyond just offering the latest cybersecurity solutions; now, we can provide a fully realised suite of additional support services for its vendors and partners.
Spreading the cost of cybersecurity with FaaS
Financing cybersecurity solutions allows businesses to acquire top-quality hardware, software, and support services without large upfront costs. This approach spreads payments over time, enhancing spending power and avoiding immediate budget constraints. Fixed, affordable payments improve cash flow management, keeping reserves intact for unexpected expenses or new opportunities.
Additionally, financing offers significant tax advantages with 100% tax relief on capital expenditures and interest, and provides flexible, bespoke payment schedules aligned with financial cycles. This practical strategy ensures businesses can secure the necessary tools to secure their operations without compromising financial stability or delaying other critical investments.
Speaking on the announcement, Hayley Roberts, CEO of Distology, said, “It’s a privilege, in this tough economic climate, to offer customers a third option for securing the technology they need to protect themselves without worrying about what it means for their bottom line. Alternative finance options like this are crucial to protecting their future success.”
Growing vendors market reach with PRaaS
The newly added PRaaS programme is a cost effective monthly retainer to provide bespoke services based on vendor and partner needs, including PR planning, press releases, social media support, coverage monitoring, media interviews, blog content, podcasts and media list development and bi-weekly calls and monthly reports.
“Our PRaaS offering is designed to meticulously craft and deliver targeted messages, create brand awareness in the channel, and ultimately drive growth for our vendors in both our UK and Benelux regions,” continued Sarah Geary, CMO. “We’ve painstakingly chosen partners that have a wealth of channel and cybersecurity experience, and I have no doubt they will quickly become an invaluable component to our vendors’ future success.”
