Managed Services Agreement (MSA)
Ensure your busines continuity with MSA
What is MSA?
A Managed Services Agreement (MSA) is an annual support contract that generally includes detailed rates, services, and terms for each functional area of the partnership. Under this obligation, post-deployment of any ERP or CRM or software, CloudFronts reserves its resources for a certain number of hours every month to serve the customers during any breakdown, downtime, or sudden unexpected glitches.
Key Components of MSA
An MSA will manage and provide a defined set of services to our clients as set out in the MSA. For customers, a robust MSA can ensure that you are supplied with the right services at the right time.

Key Benefits of
Managed Services Agreement
Huge Cost savings
One factor that holds business managers and owners back from signing an MSA is the idea of paying up even when there is no rectification needed. Post-deployment of ERPs, CRMs, or analytics, it is important to note that several upgrades happen from time to time throughout the year, and one needs a resource to be allocated for the same and this untimely resource demand can prove to be very expensive! So, a contractual agreement is likely to save you money in the long run. CloudFronts offers discounts and low rates to their contract clients, and you will be able to better budget for your continued maintenance as many of the costs will be arranged beforehand.
Emergency services
There can be sudden breakdowns and the discontinuation of both CRM and ERP modules can cause entire operations to stop and this may lead managers to panic. In the past, our clients have reported how CRM breakdown for a week can affect their ability to sort the sales opportunities pipeline and hence, potentially stand a chance to lose business. Similarly, ERP breakdown can hurt the financial operations and reporting momentum in the background. When you have an existing agreement with an IT service provider like CloudFronts, you’ll know quickly whom to contact in that event. When your systems are down unexpectedly, time is of the essence, and you won’t want to be clueless and search around for a service provider to assist you.
Change of IT Services Provider!
Many of our clients in the past have expressed their displeasure with the current Microsoft partners but they were obliged to continue with them until complete implementation. However, once the deployment was done, they were willing to explore another partner for the continuation of the maintenance of their ERP and CRM platforms. In this case, CloudFronts will be more than happy to help such customers as 50% of our client base comes from other partners.
