New partnership shakes up the managed services and cloud sector

Living Tech, one of Cape Town's leading managed services companies, and BUI, Microsoft's foremost infrastructure and cloud partner announced today a partnership to bridge managed services, expert infrastructure and cloud services markets.

The collaboration, which combines Living Tech's managed services and proactive expertise with BUI's multi-level integration and virtualisation, is based on strategic offerings ranging from business to business (B2B) services, Microsoft Service Administration and cloud computing.

"We are thrilled with this new partnership as I was looking for an innovative technical partner that could help us grow, scale our solutions and deliver the kind of innovative Technology Services that small professional firms need. We found it in BUI and its people," says Brenton de Scally, MD of Living Tech.

"The combination of Living Tech and BUI services creates an exciting opportunity for our company and especially for our small to mid-sized clients who rely heavily on technology.

"They have complex environments with multiple devices and are looking for a technology company that will provide them with a full solution that is pro-active and trusted. They want responsiveness, helpfulness and a personal service that works for their business," Brenton goes on to say.

"As our clients move their email, Microsoft Office, backups and applications to the cloud - they want to ensure their devices, laptops, smart phones are synced, secure online and working.
