Managed service providers across the globe continue to evolve rapidly, and Solzorro IT Services keeps a close eye on key industry shifts. One of the most notable updates comes from Iomart, which has shared a cautiously optimistic outlook following its major acquisition of Atech Cloud—a move designed to strengthen its Microsoft and Azure service capabilities.
Atech Acquisition Drives Cloud Growth
The impact of Atech remains central to Iomart’s latest report. Group revenue rose 25% to £77.7m, aligning with the surging market demand for managed cloud environments. This trend is mirrored by Solzorro’s own clients requesting deeper support for Managed IT, advanced cybersecurity, and cloud infrastructure management.
The Shift from Legacy to Modern Cloud
While total revenue rose, organic revenue saw a dip as customers transitioned away from legacy services. This is a common trend across the MSP landscape as organizations migrate to modern, scalable systems like Azure and Microsoft 365.
Microsoft Business Revenue Surges
A major indicator of strategic progress is Iomart’s Microsoft-related revenue, which jumped from 7% to 30% of group revenue in just one year. This surge highlights the industry-wide demand for cloud-native operations and integrated security, including:
- Zero Trust & Endpoint Security
- Advanced Threat Monitoring
- Cloud Backup & Continuity
Leadership & Operational Adjustments
The firm is currently focusing on operational cost control and efficiency gains, mirroring the strategic leadership Solzorro provides through CIO advisory and infrastructure consulting. These initiatives are expected to streamline the business model and improve customer retention through 2026.
Expectations for the Second Half of 2025
Iomart’s vision remains steady: becoming a leading provider of secure cloud services for the enterprise segment. At Solzorro, we share this commitment to delivering secure, scalable, and high-impact IT solutions tailored to evolving business needs.
