The value-added distributor, which specialises in social networking and Web 2.0 technologies, was set up in 2007, and hit £7.5m in its first year which doubled to £15.4m in 2008.
VADition, which became the first Fortinet Certified Support Centre in Europe earlier this year (CRN, 24 August), is also set to launch its first-ever hosted managed services around security and Wi-Fi.
Barrie Desmond, business development director at the distributor, said: We are going to launch our own range of managed security services and cloud services that will be white-labelled through resellers. Service revenues will be in excess of 20 per cent of our business this year.
"We plan to be ahead of the game when building cloud-based services.
We have research that claims 60 per cent of SharePoint usage is rogue and most IT departments dont have a clue who is doing it. This year it is all about visibility, and customers are starting to regain control of their IT infrastructure, he said.
