New Zealand consulting firm Provoke and Australia’s Sharepoint Gurus have been recognised in the annual Nintex Partner Awards held in conjunction with the 2012 Microsoft Worldwide Partner Conference (WPC) in Toronto, Canada.

“Our strength continues to be our partner channel, now 700 strong across 90 countries, with products that ship in more than 20 languages,” said Wayne Woolston, president of Nintex.

“These awards were created to recognise the efforts of outstanding Nintex partners in each region that help us capitalise on the growing demand for end-to-end business solutions.

“All winners are mutual partners between Nintex and Microsoft and it made sense to announce the winners at the WPC as it’s a great forum to acknowledge the innovation and strength these partners are bringing to our shared customers. We appreciate the support of our partners and look forward to continued success in the fiscal year ahead.”

The inaugural Nintex Partner Awards were given in three categories: Solution Innovation (Asia Pacific) - won by SharePoint Gurus , Marketing Impact  (Asia Pacific)  won by Provoke NZ, and Business Excellence - also won by Provoke NZ.
