PROVIDYN EXPANDS HEADQUARTERS IN RESPONSE TO SIGNIFICANT GROWTH IN 2011

New Clients and Demand for IT Support and Services Prompt Move to New Location

Atlanta, GA — November 24, 2011 — ProviDyn, a provider of IT support, strategy and services for small and medium-sized businesses, announced today the expansion of its headquarters to a new, larger location. The move, which comes on the heels of significant growth in 2011, will accommodate the company’s addition of staff and rise in customer demand.

Increasingly, small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) are realizing that handing over technology needs to experts like ProviDyn not only saves money and maximizes resources, it just makes sense. In the first half of 2011 alone, ProviDyn experienced a 75 percent increase in revenue and thus, augmented its staff by 25 percent. This is marked by several additions to the company’s client base including Renmatix, the Atlanta Humane Society and Partnership Against Domestic Violence, to name a few.

“This has been a banner year for ProviDyn and as a result, we reached a point where acquiring more space was no longer optional,” said Hamish Davidson, President of ProviDyn. “This expansion will allow us to better support current and future clients by enhancing existing services, such as cloud computing and managed services, and adding new offerings in the future as the needs of SMBs evolve. We are thrilled about the success of the company to date and look forward to continuing on this path of consistent growth.”

PROVIDYN GOES BEYOND IT SUPPORT, BRINGING WILSON, LLP A REDESIGNED DIGITAL PRESENCE

Increase in Demand for Web Services Prompts ProviDyn to Expand Offering

Atlanta, GA – December 1, 2011 — ProviDyn, a provider of IT support, strategy and services for small and medium-sized businesses, announced today it has completed a redesign and rebuild of the website for accounting firm, Wilson, LLP. The firm, which focuses on tax services, consulting and compliance and specializes in working with international real estate investment funds, businesses and individuals, turned to ProviDyn to carry out the Web portion of its corporate rebranding initiative.

“A well designed website is an integral part of any company’s technology infrastructure,” said Hamish Davidson, President of ProviDyn. “Many of our clients, like Wilson, LLP, need a reliable resource to manage their entire Web presence, covering everything from design to the technical details of hosting and maintenance. The fact that we can also turn around and manage IT needs across the board is extremely convenient and cost effective for our clients.”

Earlier this year, ProviDyn acquired a web design company, allowing it to meet increased demand from clients requesting web services. ProviDyn is now able to offer web services for clients that are either starting from scratch or have an existing website that needs improving.

“We were very happy with how Providyn was managing our technology needs. That alone made our choice of selecting them to rebuild the Wilson, LLP website a natural fit,” said Wade Wilson, founder of Wilson, LLP. “This project was not unlike our other experience with Providyn. They listened to our pain points, offered sound recommendations and efficiently delivered an end product that exceeded our expectations.”

WITH GROWTH ON THE HORIZON, ATLANTA HUMANE SOCIETY SELECTS PROVIDYN FOR IT SUPPORT, STRATEGY AND SERVICES

ProviDyn brings Technology Expertise to Atlanta Non-Profit

Atlanta – ProviDyn, a provider of IT support, strategy and services for small and medium-sized businesses, announced today that Atlanta’s oldest private non-profit animal welfare organization, the Atlanta Humane Society (AHS), has selected the company to provide services to its current location and a new campus opening in December 2011.

Expanding to an additional location prompted AHS to look for a technology provider that could act as a partner and augment its limited internal IT resources to ensure seamless communication between both locations. After an extensive review process, AHS selected ProviDyn to provide managed services, application and IP telephony support, as well as vendor management for both AHS locations. The ProviDyn team will also work closely with AHS to implement cost saving solutions by removing aging equipment and improving processes and efficiency with cloud services.

“With two facilities, we needed a professional resource to help us manage the day to day technology piece of the puzzle and also the complexities of ensuring our IT infrastructure could support both locations,” said Chris Slee, Vice President of Finance for AHS. “Right away we felt that ProviDyn was the right choice. They came in with a hands on approach, solid track record of meeting the technology needs of small and medium-sized businesses and a willingness to customize a solution to fit our needs.”

The new Mansell campus of AHS is funded by an ongoing $10M capital campaign and is expected to allow the organization to double the number of animal adoptions to 12,000 dogs and cats annually and total between 8,000 and 16,000 spay/neuter surgeries. Expanding North of the perimeter also opens up the possibilities for AHS to engage new supporters and adopting families.
