Priority Software are a leading global provider of comprehensive ERP solutions, with reliable cloud and mobile ERP applications. Now, more than ever, businesses need software that will allow them to continue delivering their products and services, as well as adapting to the recent surge in remote working. As such, the Irish market is now primed and ready to implement digital transformation, and we’re pleased to be able to offer this to Irish businesses.

“The partnership is an important development for the growth of Hybrid Technology Partners, with the creation of 20 new roles in the IT sector, and we hope to expand this growth further over the next three years. Since we started in Limerick almost 20 years ago, we’ve expanded the business to include offices in Dublin, and this new business partnership is an important milestone for us. We’re excited to be recruiting at a time when the economy is facing significant challenges in light of the Covid-19 pandemic, and are proud to be able to play our part to support the IT and business sector”, Browne added.

Also speaking at the launch was David Greenlees, Managing Director, UK and Ireland at Priority Software, who commented: “We are proud to welcome Hybrid to our global partner network. This initiative is an integral part of our strategic expansion in the region, and furthers our commitment to Irish companies contemplating the move to ERP to grow their business. Hybrid’s skilled and experienced team, matched with its local customer support and service capabilities, and our shared vision of right-sized ERP, will fuel new and exciting opportunities for both our companies. 

“Customers who have implemented Priority ERP have benefited from improved production capacity and cost control, better supply chain management, stronger cashflow, longer and more profitable customer base, and many other demonstrable elements. We’re looking forward to bringing these benefits to the Irish market.”

The partnership was launched today with a virtual event. Minister of State for Trade, Business and Employment, Pat Breen, officially launched the partnership and announced the creation of the new jobs stating that: “The Covid-19 challenge has accelerated our insights and thinking on new ways of working and working remotely, which is a major policy emphasis of my Department’s regionalisation strategy.  The Covid-19 pandemic is seeing businesses being asked to adapt to new ways of working, so it is great to see innovative software like Priority’s being brought to an Irish market in partnership with a trusted IT services provider like Hybrid Technology Partners.“
