JOTELULU

A cloud computing platform called JOTELULU turns established IT firms into cloud service providers. System management tools, cloud-based IT and communication services, and several more features are all provided by Jotelulu. They were all committed to addressing the issues that small IT businesses and their clients faced on a regular basis (SMB and VSB). Very small businesses NEED to become digital, yet they lack technical expertise. They frequently rely on small IT businesses to assist them. Why not develop a platform that makes it simple for conventional IT organizations to administer and sell cloud services? Jotelulu was first established in 2013 as an IT consultancy firm but has now transformed into a dedicated cloud platform for IT businesses. Independent software vendors, software integrators, technical support providers, and IT procurement firms are just a few of the various categories for which Jotelulu has been created. Jotelulu, a Spanish company, operates a number of datacenters in Madrid from which it offers its services. However, internationalization predictions point to a quick deployment of infrastructure in various LATAM and European datacenters over the coming several years. Jotelulu is expanding quickly, adding new partners each week. In the next years, we hope to assist in the digitalization of as many SMBs and VSBs as we can, and we are making every effort to make that ambition a reality.
