Insight Enterprises purchased Microsoft's 2014 Australian Enterprise Partner of the Year to strengthen its digital transformation capabilities around cloud, mobility and business analytics.

The Tempe, Ariz.-based company, No. 15 on the 2016 CRN Solution Provider 500, said its acquisition of Perth, Australia-based Ignia will strengthen Insight's consulting services for customers in the utilities, health-care, education and government verticals.
