ECI announced the launch of its
unified cloud offering for
Microsoft Modern Workplace solutions and its new status as a
Solutions Partner for Modern Work.
With ECI's enhanced offering, customers can access Microsoft 365 and
related applications in a unified platform, while also benefiting from
the support of a designated Microsoft solutions partner in the hybrid
work space.
In today's competitive digital market, alternative financial services institutions are increasingly looking to third-party partners,
such as Managed Service Providers (MSPs), as strategic business
partners to help navigate the challenges of today's modern workplace.
For many institutions, this includes going "beyond lights on" from
day-to-day tactical support to help streamline business operations,
proactively address security and compliance challenges, and embrace new
technologies to remain competitive.
Through ECI's unified offering for Microsoft Modern Workplace solutions, customers benefit from:
-
Integrated support for Microsoft 365 and related applications, including
Teams, Power Apps, SharePoint, and Viva, for streamlined distributed
collaboration across teams.
-
Managed cloud support for Microsoft Azure, combined with ECI's data
protection and cloud security solutions, to ensure compliance with
financial services industry standards.
-
Expertise from a designated Microsoft Solutions Partner for Modern Work,
with demonstrated capabilities in helping customers shift to hybrid
work using Microsoft 365.
ECI's unified cloud solution is closely aligned with the financial
services regulatory environment, helping firms not only navigate
increasingly tighter regulations but also enable adoption of digital
technology that helps reduce risk and drive revenue and fund
performance.
"Today's alternative investment firms need a provider that can not only
support business operations across their entire IT stack, but also
understands the unique challenges of their industry - from compliance
and security to the modern workforce," said Rich Itri, chief innovation
officer, ECI. "As a long-standing Microsoft partner and leading MSP in
the alternative financial services space, we are excited to provide our
customers with a unified, fully-managed solution that combines
Microsoft's Modern Workplace capabilities with ECI's industry-leading
cloud and security expertise."
"The nature of work has changed. Employees expect the flexibility to
work securely from anywhere and have the tools necessary to enhance the
quality and effectiveness of their work experience," said Ben Summers,
director, Microsoft Teams and Microsoft 365 Platform Marketing.
"Microsoft Modern Workplace solutions helps companies transform
operations to meet the standards of today's workforce by enabling more
seamless communication and collaboration, regardless of where work is
done."
