Our take on Claranet
Claranet is a European-based managed services provider with expanding U.S. operations, bringing over 25 years of experience in hosting and IT services. The company's evolution from traditional hosting into comprehensive cloud services positions them with understanding of both legacy and modern infrastructure. With operations across Europe and growing U.S. presence, Claranet serves over 10,000 customers globally.
The firm's cloud migration services span strategy, assessment, planning, execution, and ongoing managed services across AWS, Azure, and hybrid cloud environments. Claranet's approach emphasizes long-term partnership with clients, providing not just migration but continuous optimization and support. Their managed services capabilities ensure clients have ongoing operational support post-migration, addressing a common gap in migration-only providers.
Claranet maintains certifications and partnerships with major cloud providers including AWS and Microsoft Azure. Their service portfolio includes cloud strategy consulting, application migration, infrastructure modernization, and security implementation. The company's experience managing complex hybrid environments serves clients requiring gradual cloud adoption alongside existing on-premises infrastructure.
As a European company with growing but still limited U.S. presence, Claranet may have fewer local resources and less brand recognition compared to established American providers. The company's scale in the U.S. market is smaller than their European operations. Market positioning between large global providers and specialized boutique firms may limit competitiveness in certain segments. For organizations seeking comprehensive cloud migration combined with ongoing managed services, particularly those with European operations or preferring European-based providers, Claranet offers solid capabilities backed by extensive hosting and infrastructure experience.
