01732 759725 16 NEWS : RESELLERS Expereo acquires Breeze Networks Managed network solutions company Expereo is enhancing its SD-WAN/ SASE practice and UK presence with the acquisition of Breeze Networks, a managed service provider of cloud-based network connectivity and security solutions for enterprises and government agencies. The acquisition aligns with Expereo’s aim to complement its managed network solutions with an advisory practice providing guidance to organisations on their global transformation to softwaredefined and internet-based networking. Irwin Fouwels, CEO of Expereo, said: “This acquisition comes at an exciting time as we expand our SD-WAN services to address the growing need for agile, cost-effective cloud access and global network solutions.” In April 2021, Vitruvian Partners acquired a majority stake in Expereo from European private equity firm Apax Partners SAS, which retains a minority stake in the company. New branding for Axon Axon, an IT company of more than 20 years’ standing based south of Manchester, has unveiled a new brand identity and website more in keeping with its deeper engagement with customers across the UK. Traditionally, Axon had a limited relationship with clients who would generally contact Axon only when they had an IT problem that needed fixing. Today, there is a much greater focus on forming strategic technology partnerships with clients and helping to shape their technology roadmaps and solve business and process challenges through an expanded range of solutions. In addition to three different IT support packages, these now include cyber security solutions, internet connectivity and a suite of Microsoft applications (Teams, Dynamics, SharePoint and Power BI). Axon Managing Director Tim Mears said: “The technology world evolves so quickly, and we have to be ahead of the curve for our clients. Our knowledge, advice and solutions keep them at the fore of the latest innovations. The refreshed Axon brand represents the business we are today and our switch from service-led to client-led. It’s also a much better reflection of our team personality and culture.” axon-it.com A Compleat payment solution for Commercial customers Compleat Software and business services company Commercial are working together to bring digital transformation to accounts payable, online buying and digital procurement, saving time and improving accuracy by eliminating time-consuming manual data entry.
