Our take
Daisy Corporate Services, a part of Daisy Group, is a leading UK Managed Service Provider. Based in the Northwest, the company serves mid-sized to enterprise-scale businesses, where its counterpart Daisy Communications serves the SMB market.
The company has grown organically since its original launch in 2001, and now boasts an impressive client base across the UK. It provides cyber security, communication, and cloud-based services, with a particular focus on Microsoft products.
Interestingly, the revenue dominance of Apple over Microsoft has not perturbed Daisy, which has capitalised on UK businesses utilising the cloud for many of their operations. The Group collectively serves upwards of 2000 businesses, and has acquired North England tech companies Communication Better, ECSC and XLN to bolster its position and income.
