Cisco has once again recognized Avit as one of its most forward-thinking partners in the Netherlands. During the annual partner awards, Avit received the prestigious titles of Security Partner of the Year and Managed Services Partner of the Year.

These awards reinforce Avit’s leading role in cybersecurity and as an MSP in the field of digital infrastructure. They also confirm that Avit has chosen the right path by heavily investing in these two domains in recent years.

Each year, Cisco recognizes partners in the Netherlands that have demonstrated exceptional growth within specific areas or have distinguished themselves through their innovative approach. The granting of these awards highlights the strong and strategic collaboration between Avit and Cisco, as well as Avit’s chosen “Cisco-only” focus.

“Cybersecurity is indispensable in today’s rapidly evolving digital landscape,” says Hamid Abedini, Managing Director of Avit Netherlands. “With our solutions and expertise, we help companies stay ahead of threats. The trust that organizations place in us by handing over the keys to their network foundation and placing the management of their core operations in our hands says everything about the strength of our partnership and the reliability of our Managed Services. We feel deeply connected to that responsibility and work every day to live up to that trust.”

The strategic direction Avit has taken by elevating its Managed Services organization to an international level is bearing fruit. Springboard Services, the internal service organization behind Avit and the other labels of Springboard Network, has many years of experience in managing and maintaining often complex and critical infrastructures. Their specialized customer teams focus entirely on the network, allowing organizations to concentrate on their core business.

“Our commitment to delivering quality, consistency, scalability, and network security within our European Managed Services network has been rewarded,” says Holger Brøns Jensen, Managing Director of Springboard Services. “Together with our NOC in Emmeloord, our Global Operations Center in Manila, and our SOC in Portugal, we have invested in Cisco Powered Services and have now been officially certified by Cisco. We are extremely proud of this achievement.”

Dennis Veltman, Leader Partnerships at Cisco Benelux, also emphasizes Avit’s impact: “With a broad focus on Cisco Security, Networking, and Collaboration, this partner offers a comprehensive managed portfolio. Unique strengths such as delivering 24/7 services in multiple languages and professional monitoring from their NOC and SOC demonstrate their strong growth as an MSP and form the foundation for this recognition.”

Following previous awards for Partner of the Year, Security Partner of the Year, North Partner of the Year, and Customer Experience Partner of the Year, the title of Managed Services Partner of the Year is a valuable addition to Avit’s growing collection of accolades.
