Microsoft 365 Copilot Business: SMB offers and opportunities.
From July 1, Microsoft's new SMB Copilot pricing creates a bigger partner opportunity. Here's what's changed and how to turn it into more sales.
Crayon was nominated with the ProPartner of the Year Rising Star Award at the 2025 Veeam Partner Awards. This recognition reflects our team’s strong performance, commitment to our partners, and focus on supporting Veeam as they grow and evolve their offerings.
Crayon continues to play a critical role in the Australian channel as a leading technology aggregator, supporting the majority of partners across the region. This scale enables us to deliver consistent enablement, technical expertise, and value-added services to partners nationwide.
As Cloud Solution Providers continue to transform how they deliver resilient, secure services to customers, one platform that’s rapidly gaining traction is Veeam Data Cloud (VDC) for Veeam Cloud & Service Provider (VCSP) Program. This SaaS-based, multi-tenant platform streamlines backup management, client onboarding, and offsite cloud storage enabling MSPs to scale services and accelerate growth with ease.
Protecting data across multiple SaaS platforms has traditionally meant juggling tools, logins and consoles adding unnecessary risk and operational overhead. Veeam Data Cloud changes this with a single, unified platform protecting Microsoft 365, Entra ID, Salesforce, Azure, and Vault. The result? Real advantages for MSPs:

Crayon is an authorised aggregator in Australia approved to deliver Veeam technical training directly to partners. This training is designed to support partners in achieving Veeam certifications and is delivered by our certified Veeam Engineer available exclusively to our committed partner network. These sessions help MSPs rapidly build deep technical expertise and strengthen their Veeam capabilities.
Crayon acts as an extension of your Sales and Pre-Sales teams, supporting technical queries, solution design, demonstrations, and opportunity strategy often without the need for direct vendor engagement.
Through our dedicated Veeam Technical Specialists, Crayon offers annual or on-demand Veeam health checks. This value-added service is unique to Crayon and ensures partner and customer environments remain optimised, secure, and resilient.
Partners can access quarterly updates covering Veeam product enhancements, roadmap insights, and operational best practices keeping MSPs ahead of market and customer demands.
Subject to funding availability, Crayon can enable access to local and international Veeam training programs, partner events, and industry experiences, strengthening partner engagement across the Veeam ecosystem.
Together, Crayon and Veeam empower MSPs to simplify operations, unlock new recurring revenue streams, and deliver modern, secure data resilience services at scale across Australia and the wider ANZ region.
