Zynstra wins 2015 Infrastructure Innovation of the Year at the UK IT Industry Awards
Bath, United Kingdom – 23rd November 2015. Zynstra a provider of hybrid cloud solutions for small and medium sized businesses (SMBs), has been awarded the 2015 UK IT Industry Award for Infrastructure Innovation of the Year.
Zynstra beat off competition from nine other finalists, winning the award for its ability to deliver measurable customer benefits and for reinventing the way organisations buy and manage their IT infrastructure. Zynstra’s customers have seen improved efficiencies (reducing an IT team’s admin burden by over 90%), enabling the release of IT resources to focus on strategic projects rather than just ‘keeping the lights on‘ and travelling to remote offices to fix problems.
