Logient continues to grow with the acquisition of AZUR Group, a leader in the integration and management of business applications for enterprises. This transaction solidifies Logient’s presence in Quebec by enhancing its service offering to support all of its customers’ technological and digital needs.

According to Vincent Godcharles, President and CEO of Logient, “AZUR Group has developed considerable expertise in the integration and management of business applications such as Salesforce and Microsoft Dynamics 365. These applications have gained significant market share in recent years. At the same time, our customers are increasingly looking for a single vendor to manage their entire technology ecosystem and centralize their IT projects under one roof. For Logient, it is critical to be able to respond to the many projects that require the combination of platform integration and custom development. This transaction fits perfectly with our growth strategy, enhances our integrated service offering and solidifies our position as a one stop shop.»

The sixty highly qualified employees of AZUR Group join Logient’s current team of 350 professionals established on 3 continents. This acquisition positions Logient as THE reference for companies in Quebec to conceptualize, set up and realize large-scale digital and technological projects.
