Microsoft CSP partners involved.” Darren stressed that partners that are already offering Azure and those new to the platform can get involved. “It’s ideal, not only for partners that are completely new to CSP and Azure, but also to those working on a mainly reactive basis at the present time,” he said. “Through the programme, partners can start to be proactive and take their own Azure

value proposition to market.” The Azure programme is part of the wider TD SYNNEX Accelerate programme, which uses a proven and tested methodology to support partners business growth with a specific vendor.

Inevidesk expands channel partner ecosystem

Inevidesk has expanded its channel partner programme with the addition of Totality, Logicle IT and WIT to solidify its commitment to bringing the benefits of virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) to the widest range of organisations and users, from office workers to those with the highest graphical demands. Launched in June, the channel partner programme empowers resellers and managed service providers to make VDI accessible to all clients and challenge the limitations of traditional public cloud and big tech offerings. With Inevidesk, partners can offer high-performance VDI at an accessible price point, allowing organisations to work flexibly without compromising on their digital experience. Totality Services, a UK-based managed IT services provider specialising in small to medium-sized businesses, has a track record of enhancing clients’ efficiency, security and productivity since 2008. Its portfolio includes end-to-end IT services, cyber security, data and email migrations and IT consultancy. “We really liked Inevidesk’s concept and instantly saw the applicable use cases across our client base, particularly those needing access to large files such as media and architects – in our eyes, it solves a lot of issues for users who sometimes or always work remotely,” said John Saville, head of strategic partnerships at Totality Services. Logicle IT has been dedicated to enhancing design processes for architectural, engineering, and design-based practices since 2017. With a deep understanding of the unique requirements of these industries, Logicle IT delivers comprehensive IT- managed services that provide visible, effective IT solutions that drive efficiency and innovation in design practices. “Inevidesk boosts the performance of

regularly used client applications like CAD and 3D modelling, supports our clients' remote working or hybrid working policies and enables smooth collaboration,” said Stuart Gateson, director at Logicle IT. “It also enhances our client's security posture by centralising data and simplifying IT management. Updates and scalability are straightforward, and our client's hardware costs are significantly reduced with predictable pricing.” WIT (Workshop IT), now part of the Net Essence Group, has provided IT consultancy services to the architecture, engineering and construction sectors since 2013. A long- standing collaborator with Inevidesk, WIT played a pivotal role in the early development of Inevidesk, with many of its clients acting as beta testers and initial adopters. “WIT’s embrace of innovation was a primary motive in our recent acquisition and our implementation of Inevidesk for our clients is a shining example of this,” said Yvan Bamping, CEO of WIT. “We have seen the huge benefits it has brought and believe the partnership has significant value for many other organisations and sectors.” Tim Whiteley, co-founder at Inevidesk, added: “We are thrilled to be growing our channel programme and to see the value of our service recognised by increasing numbers of new partners who are excited to introduce our innovative VDI platform to their clients. Our mission was always to open the benefits of high performance VDI to the widest possible audience, especially those who otherwise have been priced out of such technology by public cloud and big tech offerings. Working with proactive partners enables us to reach so many more organisations and their feedback and input will drive our future cycles of development and innovation.”
