Gary Witts
Managing Director
Gary is the man in charge, who is now a cloud computing guru after taking the less-than-traditional route into the industry – he trained at university to become a rocket scientist.
Andy Witts
Business Development Director
Andy is responsible for developing and nurturing our customer base. He’s also responsible for the Datastore365 playlist when he’s in the office (Steps Greatest Hits is his personal preference).
Chris Norman
Technical Director

Jon was lucky with a ‘bucket list’ hole in 1 in 2018 – albeit not as talented as his colleague, Dan, at golf or Microsoft 365!
