With its 30 years of expertise and strong references, CANCOM acts as a leading partner for successfully shaping the digital future of companies. CANCOM also convinced with Managed Workplace Services that cover the entire lifecycle. This starts with the deployment of the required devices in the CANCOM owned Service Factory and continues through to the operation of the workplace environment in the desired sourcing model – in the public cloud, in a CANCOM data center or as remote management when operating in the customer’s own data center.
“The CANCOM experts know how to meet companies where they are today when it comes to the workplace – regardless of company size or industry”, says Roman Pelzel, Principial Consultant at ISG and lead author of the study, explaining the strong market position of CANCOM. “They take future developments into account from the customer’s point of view and support them with precisely tailored technologies and services.
