Integr8 IT named as Workgroup, Microsoft's Top Emerging Partner


Johannesburg, 03 Oct 2008

Integr8 IT, South Africa's largest privately owned national BEE ICT network integration and infrastructure management specialist, has added another award to its growing list of industry accolades, having been singled out as the Workgroup/ Microsoft Top Emerging Partner of 2008.

Representatives from the networking company recently attended the first Annual Workgroup Microsoft Awards Dinner organised to recognise and thank the top 20 Microsoft partners.

In total, six partners received awards. Integr8 IT grew its Microsoft business and generated a substantial increase in revenue from 2007 fiscal year to 2008 fiscal year.

This earned Integr8 IT the title Top Emerging Partner of 2008. The award recognises a partner that has stood out in terms of growth via an ongoing partnership and alliance with Workgroup.

Spokespersons for Microsoft said that in addition to delivering consistent performance both monthly and quarterly, Workgroup continues to analyse its customers and this has allowed the company to identify, uncover and nurture growth opportunities for the months and years ahead with their partners.

One of the goals laid out by both Workgroup and Microsoft has been to reach new customers. The Top Emerging Partner of 2008 award recognises the partner that has grown year-on-year in customer reach for Workgroup.

“We are very pleased with this award and the recognition from our long time partners Workgroup and Microsoft,” said Robert Sussman, CEO at Integr8 IT. “We have a vested interest in continuing to expand the frontiers of our business landscape and seek out new opportunities to add value. Market conditions dictate that companies secure core skill sets and deliver on offerings quicker and more effectively than ever before. That is our objective and this award shows that we are on the right path. We would like to thank Workgroup and Microsoft for their ongoing interest, support and recognition.”
