Softchoice, a leading North American IT solution and managed
service provider, is pleased to announce they are winners of the
2017 Microsoft Canada IMPACT Award for Windows 10 Innovation.
IMPACT Awards recognize Microsoft Canada partners who are leading
the path to innovation in the mobile-first, cloud-first world.
“Today’s business users demand easy access to their work tools
regardless of what device they’re on, be it a tablet, smartphone or
laptop,” said Kevin Wright, Senior Vice President of Solutions and
Services, Softchoice. “Windows 10 offers that converged, unified
experience, however, making the leap to a new operating system is
no small decision and no small undertaking. As a leading Microsoft
partner, Softchoice has served as trusted advisor to customers in
both the private and public sectors to evaluate, optimize and
deploy Windows 10 to thousands of computers and mobile
devices.”
The Windows 10 Innovation award recognizes a Microsoft
enterprise partner for exceptional innovation in embracing Windows
as a Service and the Windows 10 platform, and building a solution
that delivered exceptional consumer value.
Softchoice was recognized for a solution that it collaborated on
with i3 Solutions, migrating their award-winning healthcare
application called Panacea to Windows 10 for two leading edge
hospitals. Softchoice created a unifying infrastructure strategy
that enabled Panacea to work efficiently and securely on the
hospitals’ mobile devices used by patients and caregivers – cutting
admin time for nurses by 30 percent and creating an innovative
on-demand experience for patients.
“The IMPACT Awards recognize Microsoft’s community of partners,
system integrators and service providers who are committed to the
pursuit of quality and innovation,” said Jason Brommet, Commercial
Channel Lead, Microsoft Canada. “In this mobile-first, cloud-first
era, the work that Softchoice is doing to help small and mid-sized
businesses innovate and digitally transform is more important than
ever.”
