BULLETIN TD SYNNEX to extend Pure Storage reach TD SYNNEX has formed a new distribution partnership with Pure Storage. The addition of Pure Storage complements the distie’s current portfolio of infrastructure products and extends choice to partners and their customers. Systems integrators and solutions providers can offer customers a complete end-to-end proposition – from on-premise servers, networking and storage, through to private and public cloud options and complete management and orchestration of hybrid infrastructures. In addition, with its professional services offerings, TD SYNNEX can support partners in delivering consultancy, installation and ongoing support and managed services, bridging skills gaps and enabling them to deliver more value to customers and grow their business. Jason Boxall, Senior Vice President Advanced Solutions, EMEA, said: “As the capacity needs of large and mid-sized organisations continue to rise, there are tremendous growth opportunities for partners with Pure Storage. Its high performance solutions deliver the quality and reliability that organisations need to support modern hybrid infrastructures and this agreement enables solutions and systems integrator partners to take advantage of our exceptional services, technical expertise and business development capabilities to support the evolving needs of their customers.” www.TDSYNNEX.com 01732 759725 8 Exertis launches UC service Exertis has launched Exertis Voice, a cloud-based (IP) unified communications platform. The platform brings together software-as-aservice and class-leading technology products wrapped with a deep analytics layer. The system can scale from just a few users in a small business up to thousands in a large corporate, making it ideal for businesses of all sizes. The solution, powered by Boom Coms in partnership with Exertis, provides an intuitive portal which allows resellers to provision and manage their customers as well as a customer end-user interface. Customers can access the platform in several ways including via Microsoft Teams, which becomes both the dial pad and control panel as well as mix and matching other endpoint devices across IP phones, mobile, desktop, and CRM systems. This results in Exertis Voice providing a solution of an exceptionally high quality whilst being device agnostic. Additionally, Exertis has leveraged its cloud platform to ensure ease of use for customers investing in Exertis Voice. The Exertis cloud platform enables customers to pay no upfront costs and they are instead billed monthly, reducing admin and complexity. Rik Hubbard, Exertis Cloud Services Director, said: “The synergy between our cloud business unit and Pro AV business unit is an exciting proposition for Exertis Voice. There are millions of businesses which are still using on-premise networks for their telephony, but with big changes to set-ups like these because of the forthcoming switch off of ISDN and PSTN, it’s important that businesses research cloud providers now to ensure no disruption to their systems in the near future. The flexible and programmable features that Exertis Voice can provide enables the ideal solution for customers of any size to make their telephony cloud-based.” www.exertis.co.uk Midwich to support staff Midwich has launched a significant cost of living package aimed at supporting its team of +350 staff.

Managing Director Mark Lowe, said: “We have worked hard in recent years to continually improve what we offer our people. We have paid particular attention to regularly reviewing salaries and perks. We also operate meaningful incentives like our profit-share scheme and free share awards. In addition to this, if there are small gestures that we can make to help our people whilst the cost of living is high, then we are absolutely committed to doing everything that we can.” www.midwich.com Integra announces price freeze Integra Business Solutions has announced a further price freeze on its Initiative Office Products range, designed to support members during another challenging quarter and as a thank you to dealers for supporting the group over the last 25 years. Purchasing Director Allison Fishlock, said: “We recognise the ongoing challenges our members are facing. This price support will give dealers an opportunity to not only boost sales but also to retain margins. The range continues to give members a competitive advantage particularly when it comes to pricing and accessibility.” The group has also forged a new partnership with Rocada, a leading European office furniture and visual display manufacturer. Members will have access to the full range of over 4,500 products direct from Rocada’s distribution centre in Barcelona together with an initial 50 core lines held in stock at its East Midlands warehouse for delivery to dealers or drop ship to customers. www.integrabusiness.co.uk Jason Boxall Rik Hubbard
