About Outsourcery
Organisations are increasingly considering how best to implement and use cloud services, but many still don't fully understand the cloud's potential - or how to access it effectively. Outsourcery helps organisations of any size to make sense of the cloud, working to change the ways in which they consume IT, enabling them to expand, save money and work better.
Outsourcery's services remove the need for organisations to own and manage expensive in-house, on premise IT systems, unified communications, conferencing services, video applications and IT infrastructure. Channelled through an extensive network of trusted partners, Outsourcery's end-customers range from ambitious start-ups to leading FTSE-100 companies.
Outsourcery has one of the broadest Microsoft-based cloud service offerings available today. It covers hosted software applications (software-as-a-service), virtualised servers (infrastructure-as-a-service), next generation unified communications and collaboration solutions as well as connectivity and professional services that help to customise and integrate solutions for partners and customers alike.
Outsourcery was the first company outside of the US to be named Microsoft's worldwide 'Hosting Solutions Partner of the Year' and is a Microsoft Certified Gold Partner with a total of eight competencies, of which three are gold and five are silver.
