Digicel Business: Strategic Services Provider
Digicel Business has been named a Microsoft Strategic Services Provider.
The company said, “As such, Digicel Business has the platform capability to sell and deliver the full suite of Microsoft Hosted Solutions on a regional level in the Caribbean and Central America.
“Specifically, through its data centre in Jamaica and three dedicated sub-platforms in Bermuda, Panama and Trinidad and Tobago, Digicel Business has deployed Desktop as a Service across all 26 of its markets in the region. This solution is deployed on the Microsoft platform using Windows Server, Hyper-V virtualisation, SQL Server, System Centre, RDS, Office and Exchange.
Digicel Business Solutions CEO, Tom Carson, said, “The role of technology in business success has shifted in a way that makes cloud computing very difficult to ignore. The technology decision makers in today’s organisations are no longer responsible just for the management of IT.
“Now, they must also support business growth and organisational effectiveness by reducing costs and delivering rapid, secure anytime, anywhere access to IT resources in an effort to build a strategic advantage. And with current trends predicting that 60% of server workloads will be virtualised by the end of 2014, Digicel’s Cloud platform is now delivering these benefits to Governments and businesses of all sizes across the Caribbean and Central America.”
Digicel Bermuda Director of Business Solutions, Michael Branco, added, “With this endorsement, together with our advanced Cloud platform, we are delivering the next generation in technology innovations to our customers, enabling us to partner with them in a more meaningful way and enabling them to be more successful. With our local presence, we are delivering on our promise of being the best service partner to our customers across the region.”
