JumpCloud for MSPs<\/a>\u2122 is a new product that brings JumpCloud\u2019s open directory platform\u2122 into the MSP world.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to the robust cloud directory and device management capabilities of the platform, JumpCloud for MSPs gives providers access to the Multi-Tenant Portal<\/a> for the support and single-pane-of-glass features they\u2019ve come to rely on. The benefits of JumpCloud for MSPs go beyond features and capabilities, with ticketing and billing integrations with PSAs, a revamped pricing and packaging plan, and the JumpCloud Ascent Partner Program<\/a> that is designed to help you grow your business. MSPs can augment their existing tools and services, or consolidate their tech stack under JumpCloud\u2019s identity-centric modern platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trialing various products and tools can take a considerable amount of time for MSP admins. This is especially true when the product in question has an extensive list of features and capabilities. JumpCloud has a number of high impact tools and components that trialing administrators will want to consider testing for themselves and their customers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The content below is not intended to be an exhaustive list of \u201cHow To\u2019s\u201d or a substitute to Knowledge Base articles. Rather, it should serve as a roadmap for getting the most out of your JumpCloud trial.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before beginning your JumpCloud trial, use the following categories to assess your MSP\u2019s and clients\u2019 current and future needs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
