Acronis recently launched a new Global Partner Program and is focused on expanding its market reach worldwide by bringing on new partners with a world-class partner program. This includes bringing on new master distributors, which Acronis is actively seeking in regions throughout the world. The master distributor agreement with Aflex supports this strategy and effectively opens up the Russia and CIS region to any partner that wants to sell Acronis data protection solutions, including existing Aflex resellers, new resellers, and other distributors.
Aflex has a strong existing partnership with Acronis and vast experience successfully deploying its data protection solutions. As a result, partners in the region benefit from better support, smoother deployments, and improved operational efficiencies when selling Acronis solutions.
Acronis will continue to work closely with Aflex and maintain an active presence in the region to ensure that its partners are positioned for success, and its end users are successfully deploying Acronis solutions.
