Megaport growth playbook

Diagnosis

Megaport is a public NaaS leader (A$395.2M+ ARR, 4,000+ customers) that bought Latitude.sh to sell compute with its network, and its homepage now reads "Compute. Network.

Storage." Its hiring shows the plan: a compute campaign specialist for lifecycle and SEO/AEO, compute account managers in sales pods, an analytics leader to unify reporting across brands, field marketing for Brazil and Mexico, and channel growth in the US, Asia and Italy.

The gap is that compute still lives off-site: every compute menu link opens Latitude.sh, whose pages barely mention Megaport, there is no compute pricing, the localized sites stopped updating in July, and no case study covers compute. This playbook brings compute onto megaport.com with the network bundle, fixes cross-brand attribution, sells compute to the existing base and partners, and localizes for the new regions.

Growth Score

7/10

Biggest Opportunity

Sell compute and private connectivity as one product to Megaport's 4,000+ customers and partners, from Megaport's own pages, where competitors like PacketFabric already pitch the bundle.

Biggest Risk

Two brands competing for the same buyer: if Latitude.sh keeps selling its own cloud connectivity and Megaport keeps sending compute traffic away, the combined platform never shows up for customers and rivals take the bundle story.

Start here

The three moves to make first. Each one is written up in full below.

  1. 1

    Keep compute buyers on megaport.com: real CPU, GPU, VM and bare metal pages that sell compute with the network

    Replace the logo headline on /solutions/compute/ with a text H1 and add a compute row to /pricing.

Quick wins with a clear first action.

  • 01

    Megaport's homepage now leads with "Compute. Network. Storage.", and it is hiring a campaign specialist for compute SEO/AEO and multi-brand campaigns, an analytics leader to unify reporting across brands, and compute account managers. But every Compute item in the main menu, and both buttons on the compute page, open latitude.sh in a new tab, on pages that mention Megaport only in a footer link and promote Latitude's own Cloud Gateway for private cloud connections. The one compute page on megaport.com has a logo image as its headline and there is no compute price on /pricing. PacketFabric, meanwhile, sells GPU Cloud, Bare Metal and VMs with its network on its own site.

    Smallest test

    Publish the GPU page first and compare its opportunities with the current menu link for a month.

    Why it works

    Build four product pages on megaport.com (CPU, GPU, Virtual Machines, Bare Metal) with text headlines, starting prices, the 13 metros, and the case Latitude alone can't make: compute plus a private path to AWS, Azure, Google and your data center, priced together. Keep Latitude.sh for deployment, but hand off with tagged links into a Megaport-branded sign-up step, and add a compute row to /pricing. Translate the four pages into Portuguese, Spanish and Japanese for the regions now hiring.

    Megaport's domain and 4,000+ customers are the distribution the acquisition paid for. Pages on megaport.com can rank for compute searches, keep attribution in one place, and sell the bundle that competitors are already pitching.

    Risks and how to handle them

    • Two sites compete for the same searches

      Make megaport.com the canonical home for compute product pages and point Latitude.sh to it for combined offers.

    • Pricing changes often

      Show "from" prices pulled from one source.

    Evidence

Storage."; "One platform to deploy, connect, and scale compute, network, and storage infrastructure"; 170+ Tbps capacity, 31+ countries, 410+ service providers, 1,200+ enabled locations. In the main menu, all four Compute products (CPU as a Service, GPU as a Service, Virtual Machines, Bare Metal) are labelled "from Latitude.sh" and open latitude.sh in a new tab: /features, /accelerate and a docs page (/docs/vms/cpu-instances).Source
    • Your websiteCompute page (/solutions/compute/), the only compute page in the English sitemap: the H1 is a logo image ("Megaport and Latitude.sh"), so the page has no text headline; "Powered by Latitude.sh, Megaport Compute as a Service"; "20+ global Latitude.sh locations", with 13 metros listed, including São Paulo SP4 and Tokyo TY4; "Explore CPU compute" and "Explore GPU compute" link to latitude.sh/features and latitude.sh/accelerate.Source
    • Competitor researchThe Latitude.sh pages Megaport sends visitors to (/features and /accelerate) mention Megaport only once, in a footer "Brand assets" link. Latitude.sh's homepage promotes its own "Cloud Gateway: Privately connect your Latitude servers to AWS, GCP, Azure, and more", and its GPU page offers RTX PRO 6000 and H100 GPUs in 26 locations.Source
    • Your websitePricing page: only network products are priced (Data Center to Cloud "from as low as US$615/mth", Cloud to Cloud US$780, Virtual Connectivity Hub US$885, MegaIX US$450); VXC, Data Center Interconnect, peering and NAT Gateway say "Login to Portal for up-to-date pricing". There is no compute or storage pricing.Source

Equinix Fabric and Zayo also sell private interconnection.Source
  • 02

    The Commercial Analytics Leader is asked to stop "conflicting reports" across brands. Today a compute visitor starts on megaport.com and finishes on latitude.sh in a new tab, so the first touch, campaign and region are lost at the moment of sign-up.

    Smallest test

    Tag the GPU link and count tagged sign-ups for two weeks.

    Why it works

    Pass a shared visitor ID and UTMs on every link to latitude.sh, record the source on the Latitude account, and sync it to the Megaport Salesforce account. Report compute pipeline by first touch and by brand.

    Clean attribution lets marketing spend move to what produces compute revenue, and gives the new pods a shared view of each customer.

    Risks and how to handle them

    • Consent rules differ by region

      Use first-party IDs and the existing consent tools.

    Smallest test

    Run one search campaign on Metal-migration terms.

    Why it works

    Publish a factual migration page on megaport.com: how Latitude.sh bare metal compares on locations and specs, how to keep private connectivity to the same clouds with Megaport, and a migration credit or first-month offer. Run search and LinkedIn campaigns aimed at former Metal users.

    A forced migration creates buyers with a deadline behind them, and Megaport can offer both halves of what they lost.

    Translate the compute page and pricing into Portuguese first.

    Why it works

    Refresh the Portuguese and Spanish sites with the compute pages, pricing, the top 20 network pages, Brazil and Mexico locations and Portuguese and Spanish versions of the LATAM podcast summaries. Run LinkedIn and search campaigns in each language to them and pair them with in-region events.

    Local-language pages make field events and campaigns convert, and search in Portuguese and Spanish has fewer competitors.

    Risks and how to handle them

    Why it works

    Generate pairing pages for operators in Brazil, Mexico, Japan and India (in the local language where it helps), each with the cloud on-ramps, latency figures from the Network Latency tool and a link to deploy.

    Engineers search for exactly these pairs, and each page meets them at a buying moment.

    Send a three-email sequence to last month's new compute customers.

    Why it works

    Build two journeys in Customer.io and Marketo: compute customers get a private-connectivity sequence after their first server (with a guided VXC setup), and network customers get a compute sequence after their first cloud connection. Measure the second product adopted within 90 days.

    The second product is where the acquisition pays off, and lifecycle email is the cheapest way to sell it.

    Add compute to one TSD partner's portal.

    Why it works

    Add compute and storage to partner commissions, portals and deal registration; build a "compute plus network" bundle partners can quote; add compute questions to the MSP readiness checklist; and run partner enablement sessions on the bundle.

    Partners sell what they can quote and get paid for, and the bundle gives them a bigger deal.

    • Partners lack compute skills

    Add a link from the latency tool to the compute metros.

    Why it works

    Add a "Where should my compute live?" option: pick your users and clouds, see the best Latitude.sh metro and Megaport path with latency, then deploy or talk to an expert. Gate only the saved report.

    Useful tools bring repeat visits from engineers, and the recommendation turns a check into a deployment.

    Offer a combined quote by hand to ten new compute buyers.

    Why it works

    Ship a single account and checkout: deploy a Latitude.sh server from the Megaport Portal with a private connection attached, one invoice, and one support path. Market it as the default way to buy compute from Megaport.

    The combined offer is the reason for the acquisition, and a single checkout is what makes buyers see it.

    Risks and how to handle them

    • Migration pain for Latitude users

      Keep the Latitude portal working during the transition.

    Evidence

    • Your websiteAcquisition post (November 2025, completed November 27, 2025): Latitude.sh customers "have deployed more than 7,700 servers", Latitude.sh serves "more than 1,150 customers" in "20 key markets across 10 countries"; "Together, those capabilities will live on a single, unified platform."Source

In the main menu, all four Compute products (CPU as a Service, GPU as a Service, Virtual Machines, Bare Metal) are labelled "from Latitude.sh" and open latitude.sh in a new tab: /features, /accelerate and a docs page (/docs/vms/cpu-instances).Source
    • Competitor researchThe Latitude.sh pages Megaport sends visitors to (/features and /accelerate) mention Megaport only once, in a footer "Brand assets" link. Latitude.sh's homepage promotes its own "Cloud Gateway: Privately connect your Latitude servers to AWS, GCP, Azure, and more", and its GPU page offers RTX PRO 6000 and H100 GPUs in 26 locations.Source
    • HiringAccount Manager – Compute (San Francisco, posted October 1, 2026): "As Latitude scales and integrates with Megaport, our current sales structure needs to evolve"; a "Pod Model" where "Sales, Tech, and Operations work as one"; the AM will "Spot Easy Upgrades" and "Proactively identify expansion opportunities and suggest additional capacity or services".Source

    Why it works

The research behind the plan

3 research areas, each summarised in a few lines. Open any of them for the full detail.

Customers

What customers say

Customers value connections in minutes instead of months. The most cited problem: cloud egress costs.

  • Lower cost than legacy circuits and cloud egress
  • Slow telco provisioning
  • In their words: “on demand”

Market

Competitive landscape

4 competitors compared: PacketFabric, Console Connect (PCCW Global), Equinix Fabric and Zayo.

  • Gap to exploit: Compute plus private network in one purchase
  • PacketFabric: Smaller global footprint
  • Console Connect (PCCW Global): Pricing behind an account

Hiring signals
