Who we are.

Founded in 2012 and proudly part of the Alviva Group, we have grown from a cloud distributor into a collaborative cloud ecosystem where technology providers, MSPs, ISVs and end customers connect, scale and succeed together. Our rebrand from Tarsus On Demand in 2024 represented more than a name change, it marked our evolution into a platform‑driven organisation focused on enablement, automation and long‑term partner success.

What makes us different

Cloud isn’t just what we deliver—it’s how we deliver it. We go beyond technology, providing confidence through clarity, guidance, and personal support. We simplify cloud operations, offer a marketplace with diverse vendors, and make it easy for partners and customers to adopt cloud solutions without confusion or complexity. Our focus is helping you achieve momentum, whether moving workloads, modernizing work, securing environments, or launching new services.

What drives us

Progress happens when people feel empowered to use technology with purpose. Our drive comes from enabling organisations to move forward with confidence, helping them make clearer decisions and build stronger digital foundations. We focus on removing barriers—technical, operational, and strategic—so teams can unlock the full value of the cloud. By guiding businesses through change and supporting them at every step, we help them stay adaptable, future‑ready, and focused on what matters most: meaningful, sustainable growth.

How we help organisations succeed.

We provide the essential capabilities that businesses and service providers need to run modern cloud environments without traditional complexity.

Infrastructure modernisation

We help partners deliver secure, scalable cloud foundations using Azure and AWS, backed by South African data residency options to support compliance, governance and regional performance requirements.

Modern workplace enablement

We support productivity, collaboration and hybrid work with Microsoft 365, Teams and Copilot readiness solutions designed for real‑world South African business needs.

Security and protection

We strengthen cloud and hybrid environments with solutions that reduce risk, improve visibility and ensure resilience across email, endpoints, identity and data.

Automation and marketplace orchestration

Through the CloudBlue marketplace, partners can streamline provisioning, automate billing and manage multiple services from one place increasing operational efficiency and reducing manual overhead.

How we operate.

Integrity is central to how we work. We prioritise transparent billing, clear communication and accountable service delivery so both partners and customers can make informed decisions with confidence.

Our teams work closely with organisations of all sizes to ensure every service from migration to optimisation is delivered with honesty, fairness and reliability.

Our philosophy.

Our philosophy is simple: cloud should be secure, empowering and easy to use. We put customers and partners at the centre of everything we do by listening first, understanding their needs and supporting them with clarity. We stay ahead through innovation and transformation, ensuring we’re always ready for what’s next. Professionalism and enablement guide our approach as we strengthen your capability without adding to your workload. And because we believe growth happens together, our ecosystem mindset keeps us collaborating, sharing and building solutions that uplift everyone we work with.
