Enomaly Offers Turnkey Cloud Platform for Service Providers

Enomaly's “Cloud in a Box” Solution for Hosting Providers

Enomaly delivers an end-to-end solution for carriers and hosting providers who want to offer an Infrastructure-on-Demand (IaaS) service.

A Challenging Environment for Hosting Providers

Many Hosting Service Providers see a greenfield opportunity to build cloud-hosting revenue from within their existing customer base, yet some are starting to experience revenue leakage as customers switch to cloud hosting services offered by competitors.
