Jigsaw24 named UK’s first Avid Certified Cloud Partner

IT solutions provider Jigsaw24 has been named an Avid Certified Cloud Partner, making it the first business in the UK to earn the status.

The partnership between the two companies means the Jigsaw24 can provide an Avid-certified solution that enables post production professionals to edit their media from anywhere in the world.    

Jigsaw24 is already an Avid Elite Partner for audio, video and storage, and will now offer the post production solution as part of its CCM24: Cloud Control and Management service. 

David Skeggs, head of business management at Jigsaw24, said: “Becoming an Avid Certified Cloud Partner reflects our fantastic relationship with Avid, our passion for Cloud solutions and our unrivalled ability to help customers take full advantage of them.  

“Avid’s technology allows post production teams to work from anywhere, which opens up all kinds of possibilities for businesses in the industry. 

“As an Avid Certified Cloud Partner, we can help customers realise the potential of remote or on-set editing – whether that takes the form of virtualising key hardware, enabling high-speed file transfers or expanding facility editorial capacity without increasing rent costs.” 

Craig Dwyer, vice president, Global Cloud and SaaS Practice at Avid, said: “Our expanded partnership with Jigsaw24 empowers post production teams to fully leverage the integrated Cloud tools from both companies to ensure customers have the best Cloud experience possible.

“More than ever, media teams located throughout the world need to collaborate in the Cloud with trusted solutions that enable them to continue producing amazing content.”
