The challenge facing VMware Cloud Service Provider Partners

Many VMware partners are currently facing a significant challenge: changes in partner programs and status requirements are threatening the loss of VMware Cloud Service Provider Partner status – bringing with it uncertainty regarding customer retention, contract renewals, support, and future operating strategies.

As a long-standing VMware Cloud Service Provider partner, WIIT supports you in handling this situation professionally: with clear alternatives, robust operating models, and a migration path that protects your business and your customers – without loss of trust or operational risks.

When circumstances change, one thing above all is essential: continuity for your customers. As an IT service and cloud specialist with strong expertise in managed infrastructure and cloud services, WIIT provides partners with a reliable platform to secure customer relationships over the long term – even if you are a non-renewing VCSP Partner or your VMware strategy needs to be realigned.

You will benefit from the strength and scalability of a European cloud provider, as WIIT operates 19 data centers – three of which are TIER-IV certified – and delivers cloud and infrastructure services in Italy, Germany, and Switzerland. This inspires confidence among your customers, especially when they value availability, location transparency, and European sovereignty.

Why you should rely on WIIT
for your VMware Cloud Services

Uninterrupted customer retention

Together, we will create a clean solution and ensure a smooth transition, so your customers can continue to rely on stable operations: with clear SLAs, reliable operating processes, and a professional service setup.

In fact, WIIT is eligible for License Portability (BYOL or BYOS) of VCF and applicable Add-ons among Broadcom Certified Cloud Services , i.e. customers can port their existing licenses to WIIT as VCSP without needing to purchase a new license.

Clear roadmaps

Whether you wish to maintain existing VMware environments, modernise, or migrate, we will work with you to develop a robust target architecture and a clear roadmap that you can confidently present to your customers.

White-label and co-delivery models

You remain your customers’ primary contact. Our team works in the background for your company as a “delivery partner” or, depending on the preferred model, appears alongside you to the end customer. The goal: your brand remains visible; your customers remain with you, while WIIT ensures operational delivery with dedicated contacts.

Operational security and compliance from Europe

WIIT provides infrastructure and services from its own European data centers, with high standards for data protection, security, and availability: a strong argument for customers who demand reliable and sovereign IT, and who require robust coverage for failover, data residency, and business continuity.

Support in communication and positioning

We help you proactively communicate the changes in the VMware sector: not as a loss, but as a professionally managed progression.

This helps avoid loss of trust and ensures planning certainty, including a clear contact structure for partners and end customers, minimising uncertainty during the transition phase.

Your advantage: you keep the customer

WIIT secures the performance of your VMware environment

With WIIT, you gain a partner who reliably manages the technical takeover while giving you the flexibility to protect your business model. From short-term stabilisation to the strategic realignment of your platform based on a European cloud provider with 19 data centers and personal support from dedicated contacts, we are at your side.

Do you have questions?

Find answers in the FAQ for VMware partners facing status changes.

What does it mean to lose my VMware Cloud Service Provider (VCSP) Partner status?

Changes introduced by Broadcom to the VMware partner ecosystem have led many partners to lose their VCSP status or be moved to the Registered Partner tier. This often creates uncertainty around customer retention, contract renewals, support, licensing models, and long‑term platform strategy. WIIT helps partners mitigate this impact with operational continuity, alternative architectures, and customer‑safe transition models.

What options do non‑renewing VCSP Partners have under the new Broadcom Advantage Partner Program?

Non‑renewing VCSP Partners are automatically re‑leveled to the Registered Partner tier. This tier allows them to continue serving their customers but with limited access to VMware Cloud Services and program benefits. WIIT supports these partners by providing a fully compliant cloud platform, access to certified services, and a structured migration path—preventing disruption to their customer base.

Can my customers keep using their existing VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) licenses if I lose my VCSP status?

Yes. WIIT is eligible for License Portability (BYOL/BYOS) for VCF and Broadcom‑certified add‑ons, meaning customers can port their existing VMware licenses to WIIT without purchasing new ones. This ensures continuity for customers and eliminates unnecessary additional licensing costs.

How does WIIT help partners maintain customer relationships during the transition?

WIIT ensures uninterrupted customer retention by providing stable operations, clear SLAs, and enterprise‑grade managed services delivered from European data centers. Partners remain the primary customer contact, while WIIT supports delivery in the background or jointly—ensuring brand continuity and customer trust.

Is the VMware White Label model still available for partners?

No. Broadcom sunset the White Label model on October 31, 2025. Existing partners may use it only until the end of their committed contract term. WIIT compensates for this change with co‑delivery and partner‑centric delivery models, allowing partners to continue offering VMware‑based services without operational disruption.

What concrete advantages does WIIT offer to partners affected by VMware program changes?

WIIT provides a European‑sovereign cloud platform with 19 data centers (including 3 TIER‑IV), high security and compliance standards, clear migration roadmaps, technical takeover of existing environments, and dedicated support teams. This enables partners to secure their business model, maintain customer trust, and future‑proof their VMware strategy even as a non‑renewing or Registered VCSP Partner.
