12 Nov A boost to South Africa’s cloud market

Routed has appointed Axiz Cloud Technologies as a VMWare cloud distribution partner in a move that will help bolster the cloud market in the South African region.

The appointment is not only strategic to help Routed build a resilient and robust channel, but is also necessary to further enhance a local channel.

Andrew Cruise, MD of Routed, acknowledges that the cloud opportunity is massive across the African continent due to digital transformation and the related IT spend. According to African Cloud Market 2021, cloud-based office applications are increasingly vital components of the modern African workplace. Cloud services are emerging as one of the most essential pillars of the region’s digital transformation and are helping to change its productive capacity.

“This agreement is one way in which to address the growing cloud requirement,” said Cruise. “In simple terms, we need MSPs who can manage the implementation and rollout of cloud and Axiz Cloud Technologies, as one of the leading distributors, has the depth and breadth to do this successfully.”
