CBTS is pleased to share that they have been named the Westcoast Hewlett Packard Enterprises (HPE) GreenLake Solutions Provider of the Year 2022.
Based on the quality and value of a unified solutions proposal that CBTS presented in collaboration with Westcoast—an IT distributor with nearly four decades in the U.K. market—and the subsequent win, Westcoast recognized CBTS for setting an example for other Managed Service Providers (MSP) in the channel to follow.
“We thank the team at CBTS for trusting Westcoast as your HPE GreenLake distribution partner and for the commitment you have demonstrated to selling HPE GreenLake solutions,” said Rayall Thompson, HPE GreenLake Business Development Manager. “CBTS closed the first-ever UK channel partner deal with our client in 2019, and have gone from strength to strength since. CBTS also led and transacted the first colocation deal to go via Westcoast. This absolutely deserves recognition. We look forward to continuing our partnership and building future successes with you in the years ahead.”
On this project, CBTS worked with a large provider of financial software and solutions based in the United Kingdom (U.K.), to transfer their services to HPE GreenLake Primera Storage, HPE ProLiant, HPE Relocation and Migration Services in addition to a five-year HPE GreenLake services agreement with CBTS professional, management, monitoring, advisory, and firmware services. The client’s initial challenges of supporting aging infrastructure in multiple data centers, including the additional expense of doing so, were all resolved by this solution.
“Our strategic relationship with HPE and the trust that we have nurtured for more than 30 years underpin our success with HPE solutions like GreenLake,” said Scott Seger, Senior Vice President, Global Accounts, CBTS. “When we bring our best talent to our partnership with Westcoast, it’s clear that we create a winning formula for our clients. Congratulations to everyone who worked on this project and a huge thank you to Westcoast for this recognition.”
