Big day for JumpBox as we announce a new service called “Powered by JumpBox” for Independent Software Vendors. The first customer of this new program is Six Apart. They’re now distributing Virtual Movable Type as a JumpBox. Their announcement today can be found here.

This is a big deal because it means all of the experience we’ve gained through distributing hundreds of thousands of JumpBoxes for Open Source products can now be put to work for any ISV that distributes a server application. Reducing the technical barriers for would-be users trying your software means less frustration, more prospectives in the pipeline and more closed deals. If you’re an ISV with a particularly complex server app and want to learn more about how to close more deals by getting a JumpBox for your product, contact us.
