Version 1, the Oracle partner of choice for customers across the UK and Ireland, announced its inclusion in the January 2021 Market Guide for Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Professional and Managed Services published by Gartner.

The Market Guide recognises that organisations adopting Oracle solutions, products and software on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) require specialist expertise in strategy, planning, migration and managed services. Gartner’s guide highlights a representative group of service providers with proven Oracle Cloud Infrastructure capabilities and experience.

As organisations increasingly migrate to cloud platforms, many are seeking specialist partners to help navigate the opportunities, risks and complexities associated with cloud transformation. Gartner identifies several key considerations when selecting an Oracle Cloud Infrastructure services provider, including:

  • Oracle and OCI skills and certifications
  • Service-level agreements (SLAs) and business outcomes
  • Geographic coverage
  • Delivery track record
  • Customer references
  • Understanding of implementation challenges
  • Management and monitoring capabilities

Version 1’s inclusion reflects its long-standing commitment to helping customers modernise and maximise value from their Oracle investments.

Tom O’Connor, CEO of Version 1, said:

“We are honoured that Version 1 has been listed as a representative vendor in Gartner’s Market Guide for Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Professional and Managed Services.

With a track record and depth of Oracle expertise that extends back to our founding 25 years ago, inclusion in the guide reflects our commitment to investing in the skills, intellectual property and services needed to help customers maximise their Oracle investments and simplify their journey to the cloud.

We look forward to continuing to help our customers optimise their Oracle environments, achieve greater business value and future-proof their investments in Oracle Cloud.”
