Modern IT feels like a balancing act. Legacy systems sprawl, cloud bills climb, attackers probe every gap, and sluggish networks choke new ideas before they lift off. Many transformation plans stall when tools refuse to cooperate or in-house skills run thin. That’s where ePlus comes in. Backed by 30+ years of hard-won expertise and IBM’s hybrid-cloud, data, and security platforms, it turns tangled tech into a well-orchestrated ecosystem. The result: organizations shed complexity, pick up speed, and chase growth with fresh confidence.
From the start, ePlus has treated technology as a strategic asset rather than a collection of tools. That mindset underpins its standing as a leading IBM Solution Provider. The relationship combines IBM’s enterprise-grade platforms with ePlus engineering talent so that every solution, whether cloud migration, security orchestration, or AI analytics, lands on a foundation of scalability, compliance, and measurable business value. Instead of lifting and shifting problems to the cloud, ePlus builds architectures that align workload placement, governance, and cost control with each client’s long-term objectives.
Its Cloud and Data Center practice illustrates this orchestration. Architects guide customers through a structured Cloud Adoption Lifecycle that spans strategy, platform selection, execution, and operations. The team merges AWS, Microsoft Azure, IBM Cloud, and On-Prem environments with intention. Each workload lands wherever it can run fastest, safest, and affordably. Front-loading assessments map app dependencies and compliance gaps; migrations are conducted by following detailed blueprints; FinOps reviews help finance, engineering, and leadership stay aligned on usage, spend, and value.
That lifecycle rolls seamlessly into Cloud Managed Services. A U.S.-based, 24x7x365 operations team uses automated frameworks to enforce best practices, monitor health, and adjust resources in real time, all while maintaining rigorous security and cost accountability. Customers gain continuous posture assessments, unified billing insights, and targeted cost-reduction recommendations. With this model, innovation scales without the hidden tax of manual oversight, and cloud estates stay aligned with business priorities.
On-prem isn’t an afterthought. With Data Center-as-a-Service and Storage-as-a-Service, ePlus turns big hardware bills into pay-as-you-grow models powered by NetApp and Pure Storage, freeing capital without sacrificing performance. Organizations access enterprise performance, guaranteed availability, and expert first-call support through predictable operating expenses rather than large upfront purchases. This hybrid philosophy allows customers to keep latency-sensitive or regulated data on site while tapping cloud agility for burst capacity or modern application frameworks.
We unlock our people’s talents so customers can turn complex tech into a fresh opportunity. Together, we spark innovation and deliver growth that everyone shares. — Mark Marron, Director, President & CEO
Security threads through every engagement. ePlus delivers a layered portfolio that includes consulting, managed detection and response, governance and compliance, penetration testing, and virtual CISO guidance. Its teams map controls to frameworks such as NIST, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and GDPR, then integrate IBM security technologies such as QRadar for analytics, Guardium for data protection, and MaaS360 for endpoint management, to create unified visibility across data center, cloud, and edge. Managed Security Services watch over environments around the clock, hunt down vulnerabilities, and jump into incidents when seconds matter. Hands-on Zero Trust, cloud-security, and endpoint workshops build in-house muscle, cutting alert noise, shrinking dwell time, and proving audit-ready controls.
Networks are modernized through the READI methodology, which stands for Resilient, Efficient, Agile, Defensive, Intelligent. Starting with assessments, ePlus designs software-defined networks that automate policy deployment, optimize traffic paths, and secure every connection, whether in a branch office, data center, or cloud. Hybrid Cloud Access solutions link on-premise assets to public clouds with consistent identity, segmentation, and performance management. For edge and IoT cases, the company adds private LTE and 5G to ensure predictable latency and robust security. Each architecture is built to self-diagnose and self-heal so that digital services remain available even under load or attack.
DevOps and FinOps services complete the operational picture. Engineers help teams adopt container orchestration, continuous integration pipelines, and infrastructure as code so that applications move from idea to production quickly and reliably. At the same time, FinOps advisors implement tagging strategies, forecasting models, and commitment planning that turn cloud consumption into a disciplined investment process. This symbiosis allows developers to ship features at speed and finance maintains clear accountability, dissuading the ad hoc budget overruns that frequently sink digital programs.
Where ePlus really stands out is its consultative mindset. Engineers, architects, and project managers embed with the customer team to drive knowledge transfer, playbook workshop activities, and to provide ongoing optimization as opposed to just a single deployment. Then there’s training in Kubernetes, Ansible, advanced endpoint protection, and a zero-trust strategy, ensuring internal staff can run solutions, and learn even things that may not have existed when they went live. This partnership approach has resulted in trust from organizations across diverse verticals, including healthcare, banking and finance, manufacturing, government, and education, where regulatory obligations and time-sensitive workloads require accuracy as well as forward-thinking.
The IBM partnership simply deepens that trust. Leveraging IBM’s hybrid cloud and AI infrastructure combined with ePlus orchestration, customers can consolidate data, automate workflows, and uncover intelligence that improves decision-making. IBM Cloud Pak technology is built to enable enterprises the freedom and choice they need to guide their digital transformation journey, while ensuring consistency and quality in hybrid cloud applications today with Red Hat OpenShift across all footprints – from traditional datacenters to multiple clouds. IBM automation tools ensure continuous compliance and increased operational efficiency, while Watson services allow for advanced analytics use cases and conversational AI that set customer experience apart. ePlus guarantees that these functions fit seamlessly with your current investments and provide for innovation without interrupting what you already have.
Three decades of execution give ePlus the credibility to guide enterprises through the next wave of change. It has refined best-practice frameworks, built specialized managed services, and forged strategic partnerships so that customers can focus on growth rather than infrastructure. Whether a client needs to migrate a core banking system to a secure hybrid cloud, adopt an enterprise-wide zero trust model, or optimize multi-cloud spend, ePlus provides end-to-end accountability, measurable outcomes, and a roadmap for continual improvement.
Technology will only grow more complex, and market expectations will only rise. Those that succeed will be the organizations able to turn complexity into capability, cost into value, and risk into resilience. ePlus, enabled by IBM’s extensive enterprise technology portfolio and its own engineering expertise, provides that transformation.
ePlus brings together strategy, architecture, and execution under one roof to drive business capability innovation with confidence and scale with control, so businesses can thrive.
