  • UK Firm Signs On to Resell looksoftware Modernization Tools

    October 23, 2012 Alex Woodie

    Astech, an IT consultancy based in central England, has signed a partnership agreement with IBM i application modernization tool vendor looksoftware to resell look’s software across the U.K.

    Astech specializes in providing IBM i and Microsoft expertise to private companies and government institutions in the U.K. The company says that its blend of IBM i and .NET programming skills enables it to take on client projects involving Web and mobile extensions to IBM i applications.

    Some of those Web and mobile projects will now bare the mark of looksoftware, the Australian developer of IBM i modernization tools. Looksoftware has been an early adopter of IBM‘s Open Access technology, and has integrated it into its product lineup, which supports everything from mobile devices to Windows clients.

    “Astech’s knowledge of both the platform and the U.K. market is extensive, and we see this as a real benefit not only to the organizations with whom they work directly, but to the wider looksoftware user community,” states Paul Hodgkinson, looksoftware’s European channel manager, in a press release.
