About Opti9
Cloud Managed Services and Optimization
Opti9 (Opti9 Technologies) is a North American hybrid-cloud managed services provider formed in January 2022 through the merger of Webair (Garden City, NY; private cloud/IaaS since the late 1990s) and Jelecos (Omaha, NE; AWS consulting), backed by Denver private-equity firm Crest Rock Partners. Opti9 helps mid-market and enterprise customers modernize, secure and manage workloads across AWS, Azure and VMware, with managed public/private/hybrid cloud, application modernization, and Veeam-powered Backup-as-a-Service and Disaster-Recovery-as-a-Service. It is an AWS Advanced Consulting Partner and a Veeam Platinum VCSP, serving regulated industries such as healthcare, finance, government and legal. Recent acquisitions (HostedBizz in Canada and Aptible in 2025) extend its compliant, automation-driven cloud footprint.
