Intervate has won the Information Worker Solutions Partner of the Year award at the Microsoft Partner Network 2010 Awards, marking the fourth year in a row that the company has won this highly contested category.

Intervate is thrilled to be playing a major role in Microsoft South Africa’s ongoing success story in the Information Worker market.”

“Intervate stands out in the industry for numerous reasons: a satisfied customer base, continued success in winning new clients, and its on-going investment in building its skills base in our Information Worker products,” said Rory Headon-Weeks, Productivity Solution Sales Lead at Microsoft South Africa. “This award underlines our longstanding partnership with Intervate and the immense value that the relationship has delivered to our customers.”
Adds Nhlapo: “Even in a tight economy, Intervate continues to gain new customers and retain existing ones by assisting clients to maximise the benefits they derive from their investment in Microsoft Information Worker platforms. With our customers looking for solutions that help them to increase productivity and drive down costs, we expect our growth to continue strongly in the months that lie ahead.”
