IT and security solutions company DataSolutions said today that it has reached €126m in turnover for the year to the end of March, an increase of 29% on the previous year.

In terms of the services and solutions that are driving this success, DataSolutions said that demand for cloud and cyber security services continues to rise.

Over the past year, the company said it grew its cloud business across Ireland and the UK by 26%, backed by demand for Citrix. Meanwhile, cyber security was up 36% across the combined region.

DataSolutions covers a wide range of risk mitigants - from malware and ransomware attacks to data security breaches, internal threats and phishing scams - across the hybrid working world.

As well as secure hybrid working solutions and Managed Security Services, it also offers Zero Trust Cloud Security.

Over the past year, the company has also played a significant role in driving the growth of Techies Go Green, a movement of IT and tech-oriented companies which are committed to decarbonising their businesses.

It now has more than 350 signatories and has launched a partner network for members.

Michael O'Hara, Group Managing Director of DataSolutions, said that business growth and sustainability remain at the core of what the compay, as an organisation, is about.

"Corporate enterprises will continue to invest in IT infrastructure as it allows them to reduce costs, become more efficient, reach new customers, and grow their own businesses. We are confident of continued growth in this market space," Mr O'Hara said.

But he said the company believes that the IT consumer market will find it more challenging.

"With higher interest rates, slow economic growth and the cost-of-living crisis, difficulties for growth will arise in the year ahead," he said

"As we’ve done before and will continue to do, the secret will be adapting, innovating and delivering a service which powers the success of our partners, end customers and vendors," he added.
