Earlier this summer, we were proud to receive a 2024 Microsoft Ireland Partner of the Year award in the “Migration to Azure” category at Microsoft Ireland’s annual awards ceremony at the Mansion Room in Dublin. The Microsoft Ireland Partner of the Year Awards recognise and celebrate the achievements of and excellence within the company’s partner network.
The Logicalis Cloud Team received the prestigious award in recognition of a comprehensive migration project undertaken on behalf of a large global conglomerate, involving approximately 50 diverse businesses across a range of varied sectors. The project saw the team implement an Azure migration to consolidate IT infrastructure, standardise security, maximise operational efficiency, and reduce costs for the client.
This was achieved through a well-architected design strategy aligned to Microsoft’s Cloud Adoption Framework (CAF). Our team collaborated with Microsoft throughout the project, leveraging programs such as the Azure Migrate and Modernise program, and the invite-only Cybersecurity Investment Program (CSI).
This allowed the Cloud Team and Microsoft to roll out a solution that is secure by design and reliable due to its standardised methodology. This solid foundation enables future innovation and scalability for and throughout the conglomerate as it continues on its growth journey.
Logicalis has a range of Microsoft partner credentials including Azure Expert Managed Services Provider, Global Managed Extended Detection and Response, five Solution Designations, and 12 Advanced Specialisations. The company is also a member of Microsoft’s Intelligent Security Association (MISA).
It has been a fruitful year so far for Logicalis’ UK&I arm in terms of awards. In May, we also won IT Architect of the Year at Ireland’s Tech Excellence Awards for the same project, while also picking up Flex Pod Partner of the Year at the 2024 NetApp Partner Awards in London.
Scott Hodges, Head of Cloud, Logicalis UK&I said: "It was an incredible honour to be recognised as the Microsoft Ireland Partner of the Year in the category of "Migration to Azure". This achievement demonstrates the dedication of our team and our commitment to customer excellence. We strive to empower our clients with innovative solutions, and this award highlights our success in delivering transformative results through Azure migrations.”
Mairead Malone, Ireland Sales Director, Logicalis UK&I, said: “Following on from our win at the Tech Excellence Awards, we were absolutely delighted to back that up with this award. It recognises not only the team’s experience and expertise in best-in-class Microsoft solutions, but our ability to make a significant impact, deliver outstanding results, and implement technologies that work for our customers.”
