Eaton Smith LLP is delighted to announce that Crest IT Solutions has been named the latest winner of the Business of the Month Award.

Based in Elland, West Yorkshire, Crest IT Solutions is a managed IT services provider supporting small and medium-sized businesses across a wide range of sectors, including legal, accountancy, medical, manufacturing and care. Founded in 2006, the company was established with a clear aim of making business technology straightforward, reliable and stress-free for its clients, a principle that continues to underpin its approach today.

Crest IT Solutions operates as the dedicated IT division of ABS UK Limited, following its acquisition in 2018. Operating from shared offices in Elland, the partnership has brought together complementary expertise, creating a joined-up approach to business technology while maintaining Crest’s focus on delivering responsive, high-quality IT support. The judges recognised the company’s continued development within the ABS group while staying true to its founding values of reliability, continuity and client-focused service.

The judging panel was particularly impressed by Crest IT Solutions’ growth in managed support services, expansion of cybersecurity and data protection offerings, and its proactive approach to helping businesses operate securely in an increasingly digital environment. The company’s investment in people, marketing and service development was highlighted as a key factor in strengthening customer relationships and supporting long-term success.

Ben Jackson, Partner at Eaton Smith and Chair of the judging panel, commented: “Crest IT Solutions is an excellent example of a business that combines technical expertise with a genuinely client-focused approach. Their commitment to supporting local businesses, investing in people and helping organisations navigate an increasingly complex digital landscape makes them a very worthy winner of this award.”

David Lees, representing Crest IT Solutions, said: “We’re absolutely delighted to receive Eaton Smith’s Business of the Month Award. Since Crest IT Solutions was founded, our focus has always been on building long-term relationships and delivering reliable, straightforward IT support that genuinely helps businesses succeed. This recognition is a reflection of the hard work and commitment of our entire team, as well as the trust our clients place in us every day. As technology continues to evolve, we remain committed to helping businesses stay secure, connected and confident in their IT systems.”

As the Business of the Month winner, Crest IT Solutions will now be considered for Eaton Smith’s prestigious Business of the Year Award, which recognises outstanding businesses across the region.
