Cloudland Welcomes CommArc to the Team

We’re pleased to share that Cloudland has acquired CommArc, a highly respected New Zealand technology services provider with deep expertise supporting professional services organisations.

The acquisition was completed in December and represents a deliberate step in strengthening Cloudland’s national capability, particularly across sectors where trust, security, and reliability are critical.

Why CommArc

CommArc has built a strong reputation working with law firms and professional services organisations operating in high-trust, high-risk environments. Their experience supporting clients where uptime, data protection, and regulatory alignment are non-negotiable closely aligns with Cloudland’s own focus on secure, resilient, and well-governed technology.

By bringing CommArc into the Cloudland group, we are adding real depth of capability, not just scale.

This includes:

• Specialist experience supporting legal and advisory firms

• Strong operational maturity in regulated environments

• Established teams and long-standing customer relationships

• A service culture that prioritises responsiveness and trust

What This Means for Customers

For existing CommArc customers, it’s very much business as usual.

CommArc continues to operate with its existing team, service approach, and client relationships, now backed by Cloudland’s national scale, security capability, and investment capacity. Customers retain the local, relationship-led service they value, with access to broader resources and deeper technical capability over time.

For Cloudland customers, the acquisition means:

• Expanded specialist capability in professional services and legal IT

• Stronger regional coverage, including increased South Island presence

• Continued investment in people, platforms, and security

• A broader national support model without losing local context

Strengthening Our National Footprint

With CommArc joining Cloudland, our presence across New Zealand continues to grow, with established teams supporting customers across multiple regions. This strengthens our ability to deliver consistent, high-quality support nationwide, while remaining grounded in the local markets we serve.

Cloudland remains proudly headquartered in the Waikato, with a clear commitment to regional New Zealand supported by national capability.

Leadership and Long-Term Alignment

As part of the acquisition, CommArc Managing Director David de Cuevas joins the Cloudland board, bringing valuable experience in building and scaling high-trust services businesses. This reflects a shared long-term view focused on sustainable growth, strong governance, and continued investment in people and capability.

Looking Ahead

This acquisition is about strengthening what already works.

By bringing together Cloudland and CommArc, we are better positioned to support professional services organisations with technology that is secure, resilient, and designed around how professionals actually work - without compromising service quality or local relationships.

We’re excited to welcome the CommArc team to Cloudland and look forward to what we’ll build together.
