DataCore adds new distrubutor, Commtech, in UK and Eire to sell the Storage Hypervisor and new VDI
solutions in Ireland and UK -
Commtech, a
leading independent VAD in Ireland and the UK, has been appointed to resell
SANsymphony-V and VDi, Virtual Desktop Server (VDS) software solutions.The
announcement follows an extensive 2012 overview of DataCore’s distribution
strategy and reach in Northern Europe and represents the final part of the
review process. Bjarne Poulsen, Regional Director, DataCore Software, Northern
Europe, comments: “Commtech is an established route to market for storage and
virtualisation vendors in Ireland and has more recently been building an
effective capability in the UK.” He continued: “Commtech’s regional influence, strong storage and virtualization
expertise and their deep desire to work with us to promote the new DataCore
Virtual Desktop Server (VDS), will enrich their partners with a cost-effective
Virtual Desktop infrastructure (VDI) solution at 75% reduced cost compared to
alternative offerings. This will prove critical in the current Irish and
the UK economic climate and will kick-start cash-strapped VDI projects.”
Mark
Walker, UK Country Manager for Commtech, agrees. “Developing a relationship
with DataCore is key to our growth strategy. We are focused on developing the
market for next generation storage and data management technologies, such as
flash memory arrays and cloud-integrated storage. A number of our existing
vendors are DataCore alliance partners, so there is a distinct synergy between
the profile of our existing resellers and DataCore’s target partners. It’s a
positive announcement for our existing customers, who will now have access to
DataCore’s SANsymphony-V as the integrating software layer to underpin and
enable their storage virtualisation projects. VDI is also coming of age for our
partners, and we expect the uptake on DataCore’s Virtual Desktop Server (VDS)
to be immediate.”
Training
of partners commences immediately with a series of joint webinars throughout Q2
2013.
