Phoenix Software is Microsoft’s UK partner of the year for 2021.
The company, which was founded more than 30 years ago, saw cloud consumption rise sharply over the past year as it supported critical, public-facing organisations through the COVID-19 pandemic.
Phoenix pushed hybrid working models during the lockdown, letting them deliver valuable services to their own customers. It also ran pandemic response focused webinars that helped customers with Azure Virtual Desktop, Microsoft Teams and security, as well as delivering numerous free Azure Managed Services to the not-for-profit sector. The company also sought to boost digital skills throughout its customer base.
Sam Mudd, Managing Director of Phoenix, said: “The public sector has had to maintain services over the past year and a half to help people through the pandemic under tremendous amounts of pressure. We want to help them continue to do that and see the benefits.
“We have teams that are aligned specifically to local government, central government, NHS, emergency services housing, charities and education – and within education, there are schools, colleges and universities. We’ve got a very pure understanding of what our customers need and we’ve been working continuously to develop solutions and offerings that we think are relevant to their needs.”
