We’re excited to announce the 2024 winners of the Zayo Partner Awards.
Our 2024 Zayo Partner Award Winners
New Partner of the Year: Technologent
When a satellite TV provider was in the market for new equipment with a co-managed solution, Technologent and Zayo worked together to seamlessly integrate solutions that would enhance the provider’s broadcasting capabilities. Using Zayo’s Managed Edge solution and Technologent’s expertise in IT management, we delivered a scalable and resilient solution tailored to the satellite TV provider’s unique demands. This collaboration signifies a significant milestone in our new partnership.
Most Innovative Partner: Advantage Communications

Partner of the Year: Inflect

This allows customers to immediately see and compare terms for DIA such as access speed and contract length and instantly initiate the contracting process. Instant Pricing automates this process by connecting customers to Zayo services directly through an API integration with Zayo’s Tranzact platform,Zayo’s innovative online shopping and self-service platform, significantly reducing service delivery times.
With this outstanding partnership, Inflect and Zayo have revolutionized pricing strategies and structures for their clients and paved the way toward a more connected world.
