Advanced 365 incorporates Fabric Technologies brand
4 December 2012 – Managed services provider, Advanced 365 (Advanced), today announces that the Fabric Technologies brand has now been fully incorporated into Advanced 365, providing a single, coherent brand identity.
Unified communications specialist, Fabric Technologies, was acquired by Advanced in May 2012 and has continued to operate under the Fabric Technologies brand for the past six months. As of 1 December 2012, the two businesses have been legally merged, now trading under the Advanced 365 brand.
The change will have minimal impact to customers and partners as they will continue to deal with the same staff based at Advanced 365?s London office.
Neil Cross, Managing Director of Advanced 365, says, ?With the Advanced and Fabric Technologies businesses being so similar and closely aligned, it was the next natural step for Fabric to be fully incorporated into the Advanced 365 brand.?
?The merging of the two companies provides customers and partners with a strong, aligned and highly competitive proposition that we anticipate will go from strength-to-strength.?
Advanced 365, part of Advanced Computer Software Group plc, provides managed services, application development, cloud-based services and unified communications solutions to businesses across the UK.
