Former ScanSource senior management members Joel Price and Dave Hepplewhite have launched Leading Cloud Solutions, a cloud consultancy company to provide independent advice to organisations.
Leading Cloud Solutions focuses on UCaaS, CCaaS, cyber security and other technologies, as well as specialisation in integration between platforms such as UCaaS and CRM systems.
Joel Price, co-founder, Leading Cloud Solutions, said: "Some of the providers that we work with have seen a 30-fold increase in business following the first lockdown in March 2020; it is well documented that companies needed to act quickly to support a working from home model.
We expect to see continued adoption of such cloud technologies due to their flexibility and affordability. A belief supported by Gartner, who reported that by 2023 more than 50% of large organisations will connect to cloud providers, up from 10% in 2019 and by 2024, 74% of new UC licenses purchased by organisations will be cloud-based".
