We're delighted to share that Apex Computing has been named IT Services Company of the Year at the 2026 Greater Manchester Business Awards.
Winning an award is always special, but this recognition means even more because it reflects the collective effort, expertise and dedication of our entire team. Every ticket resolved, every cuber threat prevented, every project delivered and every customer relationship nurtured has contributed to this achievement.
For over two decades, Apex has been helping Greater Manchester businesses get more from their technology. While our services have evolved alongside technology itself, our mission has remained the same: to make IT simple and provide businesses with expert, proactive and dependable IT support that enabled them to grow and succeed.
Being recognised as IT Services Company of the Year is validation of that mission.
When people think about an award-winning MSP, it's easy to picture engineers solving technical challenges or cyber security specialists protecting organisations against emerging threats. And whilst those roles are crucial, the reality is that delivering an outstanding customer experience requires every department working together.
It's the service desk analyst who answers the phone when a customer needs urgent support.
It's the engineer going to site to help a customer with a complex problem.
It's the cyber security team proactively identifying risks before they become problems.
It's the relationship manager helping customers align technology with their business goals.
It's the operations, finance, sales, marketing and leadership teams working behind the scenes to ensure everything runs smoothly.
This award is a reflection of every person at Apex and the part they play in delivering excellent service day in, day out.
Technology is important. Expertise is essential. But what truly sets Apex apart if our culture. Over the years, we've worked hard to build a business grounded in strong values.
Customer-Focused: Putting customers first and being focused on them
Act with Integrity: Taking ownership and always doing what we say we will
Enable Growth: Continuously improving and enabling growth within our team and our customers
Always a Team: Working collaboratively as one team, supporting each other and helping each other grow
Reliable: Being reliable and doing the right thing, even when nobody is watching
Those values influenced every interaction we have with customers, partners and colleagues. They're the foundations upon which our reputation has been built and a key reason why so many organisations choose to work with Apex for the long term.
This award is recognition of those values being lived every single day.
Whilst we're proud of the accolade, we recognise that achievements like this wouldn't be possible without our customers. We work with businesses across a wide range of industries, helping them improve productivity, strengthen cyber security, embrace cloud technologies, implement AI solutions and ensure business continuity.
Every success story, every project and every partnership starts with a customer placing their trust in our team. We're incredibly grateful for that trust and remain committed to delivering the high levels of service and expertise that our customers expect from Apex.
The Greater Manchester Business Awards celebrate outstanding organisations across a range of sectors, recognising excellence, innovation and achievement throughout the region. We're proud to be part of Greater Manchester's thriving business community and would like to congratulate all of the others winners recognised this year. From technology and manufacturing, to consultancy, hospitality and healthcare, the awards showcase the incredible talent and innovation that exists across our region. We're honoured to stand alongside so many successful businesses making a positive impact in Greater Manchester.
Whilst we're proud to celebrate this achievement, our focus remains on the future. Technology continues to evolve at an incredible pace. Businesses face new opportunities through AI, increasing cyber security challenges, and growing pressure to improve productivity and resilience. Our goal remains simple: to help organisations navigate these challenges with confidence whilst delivering the exceptional support and strategic guidance they need to thrive.
To our customers, partners and supporters: thank you for trusting Apex.
To every member of Team Apex: thank you for your dedication, passion and relentless commitment to delivering outstanding service.
