The CEO of inforcer has hailed Microsoft’s #IntuneForMSPs initiative as a “major step forward for MSPs”.
Microsoft Intune last week announced a collaboration with inforcer and Nerdio in a bid to address the multi-tenant management challenges its MSPs are experiencing.
While US-based Nerdio was founded in 2020, boasts annual recurring revenue of $100m and was recently valued at $1bn, Intune was founded in 2022 and is headquartered in London.
Claiming to “bridge the gap between MSPs and Microsoft”, Microsoft multi-tenant management specialist inforcer in July scored $35M in Series B funding.
It claimed the new Microsoft Intune initiative will help MSPs consolidate tooling, reduce operational overhead, and accelerate the delivery of Microsoft 365 and Copilot services for their customers.
According to inforcer, the initiative will give MSPs access to:
- Integrated multi-tenant management across the Microsoft technology stack
- Direct engagement with Microsoft product teams and MSP-focused sponsors
- Tailored support, training, and enablement resources
- Opportunities to influence Microsoft’s roadmap for MSPs
“This initiative is a major step forward for MSPs who need to implement Microsoft 365 at scale for their customers,” stated inforcer CEO and Co-founder Jamie Daum.
“We are honoured to have been selected as a founding partner, as this recognises our technology leadership and deep alignment with Microsoft’s cloud-native and AI-first strategy”.
Inforcer’s platform is a “key part” of UK-based MSP Infinity Group’s offering.
“It fills a critical gap in multi-tenant management and security enforcement. We’re excited to see how this initiative will accelerate AI adoption and unlock new service models for MSPs like us,” Infinity CEO Rob Young stated.
In a blog post, Microsoft’s Lior Bela described managing a growing number of customer environments across multiple tenants as an “ongoing challenge” for MSPs.
“Importantly, this is a collaboration. inforcer and Nerdio remain independent companion solutions, offering their unique workflows and advanced automation features alongside the Intune platform,” Bela wrote.
