Cloudmania, an African cloud-based services partner programme founded by Liquid C2 in 2021, has achieved a remarkable feat by clinching the prestigious Microsoft Partner of the Year Award for 2023 in Côte d’Ivoire. Despite being in operation for just two years, the company’s outstanding achievements within the Microsoft partner ecosystem have earned them this esteemed recognition.
The award underscores Cloudmania’s commitment to delivering cutting-edge cloud solutions, customer care, and innovative service delivery in the region. With a focus on providing cloud enablement to partners backed by support, expertise, and engagement, Cloudmania has experienced rapid growth. Within less than a year, they have expanded from less than 100 partners to over 500 and now serve customers in 22 countries.
One of Cloudmania’s key strengths is its comprehensive e-commerce platform that enables seamless partnership with Microsoft and ISV products. This platform, coupled with streamlined billing capabilities and subscription management services, has been instrumental in their success.
David Behr, the CEO of Liquid C2, expressed his pride in the team’s accomplishments, stating, “We took home the award in Ethiopia in our first year of operations last year, so to win again in a new region is an incredible achievement and a testimony to the strength of our team and the value we deliver to our partners.”
Cloudmania’s vision centers around empowering businesses throughout Africa with cloud technologies that drive digital transformation. They emphasize agility, security, and customizability, while also incorporating resilience and flexibility into the organization’s foundations.
The recognition from Microsoft, a leading global organization and one of the premier hyperscalers, has further bolstered Cloudmania’s reputation as a trusted provider of cloud-enabled solutions in Africa. Behr emphasized that their goal is to build on this momentum and strengthen their partner relationships to sustain growth not only in Côte d’Ivoire but also across the entire African continent.
