Optimise networks and drive digital transformation through a hybrid multi cloud platform



The AWS Partner Network
The AWS Partner Network (APN) is a global community of partners that leverages programs, expertise, and resources to build, market, and sell customer offerings. This diverse network features 100,000 partners from more than 150 countries. As an AWS Partner, we are uniquely positioned to help customers take full advantage of all that AWS has to offer and accelerate their journey to the cloud.
What are the benefits of working with Colt as an AWS Partner?
Migration from legacy systems + siloed data to modern cloud-based solutions can be difficult and confusing. Working with an AWS Partner gives your organization the tools, expertise, and training needed to ensure a seamless and successful cloud transformation.
We'll analyse your data migration needs & network specifics to tailor your project to meet your exact requirements, with no cut corners or compromises.
Colt is your single point of contact across all aspects of your project, drastically simplifying what can be a comprehensive effort to coordinate multiple stakeholders.
Focus on what you should actually do, and leave the rest to us. We’ll manage your solution development and inform you about the vision, the progress, or hiccups along the way if there are any.
We act in advance & keep optimizing your connectivity solution to adapt it to evolving user behaviour. We spot opportunities and threats and prepare you for them, meeting both your technological and business goals.

“ At AWS, we are tailoring the partner experience to our partner's business models, to help them drive greater profitability and customer value. We continue to invest in and support our partners through simplified programs, tools, and an enhanced AWS Marketplace and Partner Central experience”
