“Cobweb is pleased to announce our partnership with local firm Media Solutions FZ LLC, an IT consultancy with extensive regional and local knowledge of the outsourcing industry. The “MENA” region is a new and fast emerging market for us and we feel the partnership will have an immense benefit to SMEs in the region.
With Cobweb’s experience and expertise in the SaaS marketplace coupled with Media Solutions experience in the region, customers will get the best of both worlds” said Mark Davies Channel Manager, Cobweb Solutions.
Davies added: “SaaS has grown from a traditional SME application, to attract a new market, where large organisations are considering the benefits of reduced cost and expert 24/7 support. Cobweb has the ability to offer customised applications to all size of organization, from 10 to 10,000 users.”
To support the partnership Cobweb has recently launched a regional website http://www.cobweb.ae which aims to educate users about the features and benefits of hosted services.

Software as a Service (SaaS) has earned its place as an IT enabler, and is now starting to attract clients beyond the traditional SME segment, according to Altaf Alimohamed, Managing Director of Dubai-based Media Solutions.
“SaaS is secured as one of the fastest growing segments in the information technology (IT) industry, both for SME and Enterprise organisations. During the last few months we have seen a change in the market, large organisations are now seeing the benefits of shifting to outsourcing,” he said.
SaaS eliminates the standard costs of IT systems such as annual software licenses, and hardware upgrades which add costs and require time and resource to manage and deploy. These costs can become substantial for large organisations, while SaaS on the other hand provides for faster implementation and dramatically reduces the cash burden, allowing customers to pay monthly when compared to the traditional way of IT enabling.
“Cobweb is a globally respected name in Hosted Services, and our partnership gives us an advantage of shared expertise and leadership. The technical support and backing offered by Cobweb creates an extremely valuable and strong proposition, enabling us to reach out to new regional markets and expand our customer base” Alimohamed added.
Media Solutions, a specialist in outsourced IT solutions & services in UAE, offers solutions dedicated to SMEs including hosted exchange and SaaS (Software as a Service).
