Commenting on the appointment, James Reed, General Manager of the Software business unit at Computer 2000, said: ‘Acronis is now clearly established as one of the leading players in disaster recovery and data protection and this agreement adds a valuable new dimension to our software portfolio and one that complements our existing range. Tis is a growing area of the market and by providing solutions for physical, virtual and cloud-based IT systems – or any combination of the three, Acronis is absolutely in tune with the needs of end-users. It presents resellers with a great opportunity to add a new and profitable revenue stream to their business.’
Acronis is already well-established in the UK corporate market, where it has been particularly successful in meeting the data protection needs of virtualised environments. With many more SMEs now also turning to virtualisation, and also making use of cloud services to create hybrid IT set-ups, the opportunities for resellers are growing all the time.
