Soonr Honored as Coolest Cloud Computing Vendor by CRN


Soonr, a leading provider of secure file sharing and collaboration services for business, today announced that it has earned recognition on The Channel Company's CRN 100 Coolest Cloud Computing Vendors of 2015. This annual list recognizes some of the most innovative cloud companies supporting the IT channel today. Soonr was named among only 20 vendors in the Cloud Software Category.

The 100 Coolest Cloud Computing Vendors honor is presented to companies based on their approach to creating innovative products, services or partner programs that have helped channel partners transform into true solution providers, ultimately helping customers take advantage of the ease of use, flexibility, scalability and savings that cloud computing offers. Soonr has been recognized for its Soonr Workplace secure file sharing and collaboration service which connects office and mobile workers and their critical information via the cloud.

This year's 100 Coolest Cloud Computing honorees are identified across five major categories including platforms, infrastructure, storage, security and software. This list is an effort to help solution providers navigate through the ambiguity of the cloud market to identify the vendors, products and services that can help elevate their cloud services offerings. Companies were chosen based on data and information gathered from solution provider nominations along with input from the CRN editorial team.

Soonr Workplace is purpose-built for usiness and optimized for delivery through the channel. The Soonr Workplace secure file sharing service uniquely offers secure file sharing, mobile productivity, enterprise-grade security and comprehensive IT control needed to achieve the collaborative online work environment that helps customers do business faster. With a powerful channel-centric model, Soonr helps to empower channel partners with expansive opportunities to take advantage of the rapid growth of cloud services and use of mobile devices in business with a channel program that has no upfront fees, very high margins and the sales and marketing support to enable partners to ramp quickly.



"Widespread demand for cloud computing solutions is increasing across businesses of all shapes and sizes. As organizations become more willing to adopt cloud technology and services, experienced solution providers are in greater demand," said Robert Faletra, CEO, The Channel Company. "The 100 Coolest Cloud Computing Vendors list enables solution providers to engage with companies who are poised to help them capitalize on these opportunities."

"We are honored to be selected as one of CRN's Coolest Cloud Computing Vendors of 2015 in the Cloud Software Category," said Sam Liu, Vice President of Marketing, Soonr. "The cloud is fueling new opportunities for the channel partner like never before. Every business now has a growing mobile workforce that need secure access to business content from wherever they choose to work."
