“In the IT services world today, size, resource, and capability to deliver a larger number of diverse technologies is vital. And to be an important part of the Microsoft ecosystem it is no longer enough to be well qualified experts, Service Providers need to have volume and capacity.
As a business that focused on expertise more than growth we have found this challenging, and we knew that we could only achieve the growth we required by joining with another business. We have been working on this strategic requirement over the last two years and are pleased to have finally joined with HybrIT Services, a Northamptonshire-based IT services and Microsoft expert business.
The synergy between our businesses is perfect. HybrIT brings extremely high-level Microsoft Azure and 365 skills and services; helping our customers to continue to evolve their Cloud strategies.
There are no changes to the BrightCloud team that you already know, or the way we do business. Every member of staff will remain in place because the teams complement each other perfectly. Where BrightCloud brings expertise in many areas such as Infrastructure as a Service, Citrix, Data Protection, Security etc… HybrIT brings expertise with M365, Power Apps, Telephony, Azure and Software Defined Networking.
The combined business will have approximately 80 staff and a £25M – £30M turnover and is comfortably positioned, funded, and resourced for growth.
After 22 years of organic growth joining the HybrIT group is what is needed for both businesses to be able to continue to deliver the services we do today and to be able to help you with the business focused IT services you will require in the future.”
