Crayon, a SoftwareOne company and a global leader in IT services and innovation, has received multiple honours at the 2026 Nitro Partner Awards. After being named Emerging Partner of the Year last year, the company was recognised this year as APAC Reseller of the Year, reflecting strong performance in growing Nitro’s business, supporting partners, and helping customers move to modern document and eSigning solutions.
The organisation was also proud to see its people recognised for their work in the region. Sam Marshall, Sales Director, was named APAC Sales Manager of the Year, and Janine Femia, Partnership Sales Manager, received the APAC MVP of the Year award. These recognitions highlight the team’s role in helping companies simplify document workflows and adopt more secure, digital-first ways of working.
The awards were announced during the APAC Partner Advisory Board in Sydney, where distributors and strategic partners met to discuss the future of the document productivity market. Conversations focused on how organisations are reviewing their document stack as procurement teams look to reduce vendor complexity and gain more predictable costs across core tools such as PDF, eSigning, and document security.
Mathew Howard, General Manager Channel at SoftwareOne ANZ, said the recognition reflects the progress made over the past year. “Last year we were honoured to be named Emerging Partner of the Year, and the team set a clear goal to go further. Being recognised now as APAC Reseller of the Year shows the momentum we have built together. I’m especially proud to see Sam Marshall and Janine Femia recognised for their contributions. Nitro is an important strategic partner for us, and this partnership continues to deliver real value for customers in APAC.”
