CANCOM/Pironet receives seven Cloud Leader Awards at Experton Vendor
Benchmark 2015
Expert opinion: "Exceptionally positioned to meet the cloud needs of
companies."
Munich/Cologne, Germany, June 10, 2015 - The Experton Group has presented
CANCOM/Pironet with awards in seven market categories in this year's Vendor
Benchmark. The IT company received awards as a Cloud Leader in the Managed
Private, Enterprise Public, and Hybrid Cloud market segments and for its
Platform-as-a-Service, Cloud Workplaces, Communication-as-a-Service, and
Cloud Transformation offerings. In its justification for the award, the
analyst group emphasized the above-average attractiveness of CANCOM's
service range and its competitiveness in the named areas.
"Seven Cloud Leader awards is definitely remarkable," said Heiko Henkes,
Manager Advisor for Experton Group. "The awards clearly show that
CANCOM/Pironet is excellently placed to provide comprehensive and holistic
coverage for a wide variety of requirements for mid-sized and large
companies as they assemble their cloud structures." The ratings are also an
expression of the degree to which the merger of CANCOM and Pironet have
enhanced the attractiveness of the joint range of services.
Strict Evaluation Matrix
The Experton Group has now rated Germany's cloud providers for the sixth
time. The analysts evaluated several hundred market participants. The
majority, however, did not make it past Experton Group's strict evaluation
matrix; only a few ultimately attained the title of Cloud Leader. The
evaluation criteria of the market monitors include, for example, factors
such as transparent SLAs, ISO certifications, and the quality of customer
support, project experience, strategic orientation, and the potential of
solutions to be developed further.
"The fact that we remain at the forefront of this increasingly competitive
market and have even been able to improve in the evaluated categories
highlights our efforts at constant optimization of the solutions we offer
and at keeping a step ahead in IT planning in the interests of our
clients," said CANCOM Executive Board member Rudolf Hotter.
One-Stop Cloud Shop for Companies
According to the Experton Group, CANCOM/Pironet is one of the few providers
on the German market with such a comprehensive range of cloud solutions in
future-oriented cloud categories and at such quality. The company has
created a one-stop shop for a wide variety of cloud requirements that
client companies might have.
From the construction and operation of cloud environments, either in its
own ISO-certified data centers or in client data centers, to communication,
collaboration, or Platform-as-a-Service offerings, CANCOM/Pironet provides
its clients complete freedom of choice in the assembly of cloud structures.
This includes, for example, comprehensive IT modernization concepts,
migration projects, and the complete rebooting of the IT environment in a
"New Style of IT". Among its clients are mid-sized and large companies from
a wide variety of industries - MAHLE, Deutsche See, Heidelberger Leben, and
Malteser, for instance.
