6 Reasons ANS Private Cloud is the Smart Choice for MSPs

In today’s competitive digital landscape, Managed Service Providers (MSPs) are under increasing pressure to deliver high-performance, scalable, and secure cloud solutions, preferably without the hassle of managing complex IT infrastructure.  

This is where ANS Private Cloud comes in. 

As a VMware Pinnacle Partner, we offer a powerful, simplified VMware Private Cloud platform that allows MSPs to deliver exceptional services to their customers while reducing operational complexity and protecting margins. 

So why exactly should MSPs choose us for their private cloud services? 

6 Reasons MSPs choose ANS as a partner for Private Cloud 

For MSPs, partnering with ANS means: 

1. We’re a VMware Pinnacle Partner.

ANS holds the prestigious VMware Pinnacle Partner status — an elite recognition awarded to only a select few providers globally. This status reflects our deep technical expertise, proven customer success, and close alignment with VMware’s highest standards. 

So, what does it mean for you? 

  • Partner Benefits: Indirect partners get the same expert support and tools as direct customers. 
  • Faster Support: Direct access to VMware’s top-tier support means quicker issue resolution — no middlemen. 
  • Expert Engineers: ANS teams receive exclusive training, ensuring expert-level support. 
  • Proactive Risk Management: Early access to security alerts allows faster, more coordinated responses. 
  • Streamlined Experience: ANS handles support end-to-end, escalating to VMware only when needed. 

For MSPs, this means peace of mind. You’re partnering with a provider that’s not only trusted by VMware but also equipped to deliver enterprise-grade solutions with confidence and consistency. 

2. You get to market faster with ready-to-go VMware infrastructure.

Time is money—especially in the MSP world.  

ANS Private Cloud provides a fully operational, enterprise-grade VMware environment that’s ready when you are. No need to spend weeks or months designing, procuring, and configuring infrastructure.  

With ANS, you can: 

  • Launch new services or onboard customers in days, not weeks. 
  • Respond quickly to new opportunities or customer demands. 
  • Stay ahead of competitors by accelerating your go-to-market strategy. 

Put simply, this agility empowers you to scale faster and win more business. 

3. You can keep it simple (well, mostly).

We probably don’t need to tell you that managing your own VMware environments in-house can be resource-intensive and technically demanding. ANS removes that burden by handling the infrastructure, patching, monitoring, and lifecycle management for you.  

This means: 

  • You don’t need to hire or train specialist VMware engineers. 
  • Less time spent troubleshooting or firefighting infrastructure issues. 
  • More time to focus on delivering high-value services to your customers. 

By simplifying operations, we help you to reduce risk, improve service reliability, and free up internal resources for innovation and growth. 

Look after your customers, not your servers. 

4. You can avoid the cost and risk of managing your own VMware estate.

As you can probably imagine, running your own VMware estate comes with significant overhead. Hardware costs, licensing, staffing, and ongoing maintenance all add up over time.  

ANS helps you to avoid these sunk costs by offering a cost-effective, consumption-based model that scales with your business on demand. 

You get: 

  • No money spent on infrastructure. 
  • Predictable, transparent pricing according to your usage. 
  • Reduced financial risk and improved profitability. 

This model allows you to protect and grow your margins, even as customer demands increase. 

5. You can access expert support and innovation through eCloud VPC.

With ANS, you’re not just getting infrastructure — you’re gaining a partner. The eCloud VPC platform is constantly evolving to meet the needs of modern MSPs,. 

But what does eCloud VPC give you? 

  • Deployment of VMs in minutes. 
  • 24/7 expert support from VMware-certified professionals. 
  • UK-based 100% sovereign servers. 
  • Best-in-class hardware. 
  • Scale effortlessly to meet customer demand. 
  • Reduced operational overhead. 
  • Ongoing feature enhancements and updates. 

This ensures you’re always running on the latest, most secure, and most efficient version of the platform, without lifting a finger. 

You can manage your eCloud VPC effortlessly through the ANS portal — a simple, always-on dashboard that lets you monitor usage, make changes, and manage your account anytime. It takes the complexity out of virtualisation, so you can stay focused on your business. 

This allows you to focus on what matters most — delivering value-added services and growing your business—without getting bogged down in the technical complexities of VMware estates. 

6. We’re very good at doing migrations.

Migrating to a new cloud platform can be daunting. ANS makes it easy. 

With a proven track record of successful migrations, such as migrating Leicestershire Police to the Cloud, ANS provides end-to-end migration support—from initial assessment to post-migration optimisation.  

Our expert team works closely with partners to ensure a smooth, low-risk transition that minimises disruption and accelerates time to value.
