CRN Names SkyKick as a 2014 Emerging Vendor

SEATTLE, WA--(Marketwired - Jul 31, 2014) - SkyKick (www.skykick.com), the easiest way to Office 365, announced today that it has been recognized as a CRN 2014 Emerging Vendor by editors at CRN, the top news source for solution providers and the IT channel. The annual Emerging Vendors list identifies up-and-coming technology vendors that have introduced innovative and cutting-edge solutions to North American channel partners. This is the second year in a row that CRN has chosen SkyKick as an emerging vendor.

"This award is further validation of the uniqueness of and need for new solutions SkyKick has introduced over the past year -- the Enterprise Migration Suite, Microsoft Exchange Public Folder migration automation for Office 365 and a new Project Management Application," said SkyKick co-CEO Evan Richman. "We're honored to receive another award from CRN and fully expect to be recognized again as we continue to innovate with new ways for partners to build more scalable and successful cloud practices."

SkyKick's SMB and Enterprise Migration Suites help IT Consultants, System Integrators, Managed Service Providers, Value-Added Resellers and other IT partners automate and manage an entire Office 365 migration project including the sales, planning, migration, management and on-site phases of their customer's move. Unlike other migration tools on the market that have focused on moving server-side data -- which is just one step in a comprehensive migration-consulting project -- SkyKick helps partners manage all of the essential steps of a migration project. This enables partners to improve sales velocity, reduce project risk and complexity, and simplify the management of the migration project, while providing a high-quality move for their customers. To date, SkyKick's application has helped thousands of solution providers migrate thousands of businesses to Office 365.

To be considered for CRN's 2014 Emerging Vendors list, companies must have been founded in 2008 or later and are actively working with channel partners in North America. The list, along with information about each vendor, will be published in CRN's August 2014 issue and will also be available online at crn.com.
