Maxtec (QBS Software Africa) and Atera announce strategic partnership
Atera, the world’s first Autonomous IT platform unifying RMM, helpdesk, ticketing, and patch management with patented AI agents, has partnered with Maxtec, a QBS Technology Group company, to transform IT operations in Southern and Eastern Africa. Together, the companies enable IT professionals to unlock unprecedented efficiency, speed, and service quality through the power of AI.
This collaboration marks a significant milestone for both organisations, bringing together Maxtec’s expertise in delivering and supporting tailored IT solutions with Atera’s AI-powered platform. Recognised as a Visionary by Gartner, Atera leverages its AI Copilot to provide real-time device diagnostics, script creation and personalised responses, enabling greater efficiency and improved satisfaction for IT teams and end users alike.
The offering directly addresses key pain points such as tool sprawl, reactive IT management, skills shortages, and manual workflows. By combining Atera’s AI-powered platform with Maxtec’s implementation and enablement services, MSPs, mid-market enterprises, and growing organisations gain access to intelligent automation, real-time insights, and faster issue resolution, without increasing headcount. In addition, Maxtec’s localised onboarding, training, and ongoing support ensure rapid time-to-value, improved service quality, and the ability to scale IT operations efficiently for long-term success.
Cherene Loots, Atera Product Manager at Maxtec said: “Our partnership with Atera allows us to bring a truly differentiated, AI-first IT management platform to the African market. By combining Atera’s innovative Autonomous IT capabilities with Maxtec’s regional expertise and customer-centric approach, we are helping organisations and service providers work smarter, resolve issues faster, and deliver a consistently higher level of service.”
