Bharti Airtel ties up with Microsoft to sell Office 365 to SMEs

  • NEW DELHI: In a sign of the increasing role being played by telecom operators in the emerging cloud computing ecosystem, India's largest telco Bharti Airtel has tied up with Microsoft to sell the software giant's office productivity suite to small and medium businesses in India.

    For Airtel, the partnership will help boost its intent to derive a larger portion of revenue from data services and for Microsoft, the tie-up will give it easy access to a large pool of potential customers in India who prefer to pay for software based on what they use instead of the traditional model of high upfront investment for licences.

    Currently, data services (excluding SMS) accounts for only 4.3% of Airtel's revenues of $7.5 billion. Telcos around the world, like Etisalat in Dubai and China Telecom in China, are looking at such partnerships to drive data revenues. Microsoft has also inked similar arrangements with AT&T, Verizon, Telstra in US and Australia.

    "There are 30 million small and medium businesses in the country. About 10 million of them use PCs, which gives us a ready market for Microsoft's Office 365 and other products," said Sanjay Kapoor, CEO of Bharti Airtel.

    As part of the contract, Microsoft will sell its Office 365 Software - Word, Excel, Powerpoint, OneNote - as a service, with the actual software hosted on from Bharti Airtel's data centres.

    Rayen Fizz It took a long time to select a contractor to develop software for medical equipment. I personally considered over 10 business proposals and sent them to the leadership for a top 5 selection. But we haven't decided yet.
