Mimecast Offers API Extension To Bolster Recurring Revenue For MSP Partners

Email and data security services company Mimecast launched a new extension to the Mimecast API aimed at managed service provider partners, closing out what Chief Operating Officer Ed Jennings called a year full of ’dramatic growth.’

’A lot of that growth has come through MSPs, so we built this API so that they can leverage that growth as well,’ Jennings said.

’We know that they need to be able to sign up and manage hundreds of thousands of users in an easy, simplified pane of glass. So our API gives them full access for soup-to-nuts management,’ he explained.

An MSP can set up the API with Mimecast within 24 hours and quickly manage everything from on-boarding customers to solution upgrades.

Jennings said that with Mimecast’s 100 percent recurring revenue business, partners can find new, robust revenue streams, even with existing customers.

’There’s a range of services that we offer," he said, adding that Mimecast also boasts a high customer service renewal rate.
