The channel's understanding of hosted solutions is growing rapidly and in order to encourage greater understanding, TalkTalk Business has sponsored a webinar for resellers in conjunction with CRN.

Our research shows that half (48 per cent) of vendors are totally confident with cloud technology – up from just 14 per cent last year – and that many view it as a significant way of boosting income.

Our Product and Marketing Director, Andy Lockwood, discussed the importance of providing a robust connectivity infrastructure in hosted solutions and how resellers can benefit from this growing market.

It's the perfect time to offer hosted solutions to customers, as many are feeling financial pressures and currently spend 15 per cent of their total IT budget on networking, so providing services and apps via the cloud could prove to be a great move for both parties.

Listen to Andy Lockwood and Laurent Lachal from Ovum debating the latest trends in hosted technology by watching the on demand webinar on the CRN website.
