Leading provider of IT services to deliver NaviSite’s cloud-based enterprise services to UK customers

United Kingdom January 27, 2012 - NaviSite Europe Limited, a premier provider of enterprise-class hosting, managed application, managed messaging and managed cloud services, has announced a new partnership with IT solutions and services provider, Richardson Eyres. The alliance marks a significant step forward for both companies, helping them to meet the rapidly growing demand for cloud-based managed services, and follows the recent launch of NaviSite’s UK cloud node.

Richardson Eyres will add NaviCloud to its catalogue of enterprise focused IT solutions, enabling the company to boost its customer offering.

It is a fantastic testament to the strength of our technology and the service we provide our clients,” commented Philip Cheek, Managing Director, NaviSite Europe Limited. “The past year has seen demand for cloud-based services grow markedly and this looks set to continue as IT departments look to deliver business critical technology services better, faster and more cost-effectively. Our partnership with Richardson Eyres will help us expand the scope of our services, allowing us to add to our portfolio of customers in the UK.”

Adam Kemp, CEO of Richardson Eyres, added: “Having long provided our customers with IT solutions and services typically focussed on saving businesses time and making them more profitable, we understand the importance of a robust infrastructure. Increasingly our customers are enquiring about cloud services and we recognise the importance of moving into that space, but doing so with due diligence.
