Company Plans to Expand Its International Presence, Retail Operations
SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, CALIF., September 28,
2004 Acronis, Inc., the technological leader in storage
management solutions, has signed a non-exclusive agreement with
Goldhill Associates of Berkhamstead, Herts, England, that calls for
Goldhill to represent the Acronis product lines in South America,
Africa, the Middle East and Asian markets.
Based on the agreement, Goldhill Associates will
leverage its network of resellers and retailers throughout the
world to open third-party sales channels for Acronis' full line of
storage management solutions.
"Goldhill, which acts as an agent between
Acronis and the retailers, is very experienced in bringing
English-language software to emerging markets in
non-English-speaking countries," said Max Tsypliaev, CEO of
Acronis, Inc. "Our international sales have been growing steadily
and we needed a partner who could tap these markets most
efficiently and effectively."
"Corporate and individual users now will have
the ability to buy retail boxed versions of our award-winning
software where ever in the world they might be," Tsypliaev added.
"Ultimately, this partnership with Goldhill Associates and its
network of retail partners will allow us to provide the best
possible customer service to users in new markets throughout the
world."
"Goldhill chose to become an Acronis partner
because of the flexibility and features of Acronis storage
management solutions and the strength of Acronis' name recognition
internationally," Michael Gold, a partner at Goldhill Associates.
"Our customers are impressed with the features and functionality of
Acronis' software, and they recognize that corporate and individual
users alike will benefit from the support that Acronis will provide
in bringing these products to market."
"Our ability to reach English-speaking users in
all parts of the globe, combined with the world-class storage
management software from Acronis, makes for a dynamic opportunity
for Acronis and its users," he added. "Our ability to reach
hundreds of millions of potential customers should add
significantly to the growth and acceptance of Acronis'
products."
"Acronis is rolling out its flagship disaster recovery and bare-meta
restore software for servers and workstations,
enterprises and individuals, worldwide," said Stephen Lawton,
Acronis director of marketing. We are adding skilled sales and
technical resources with a proven track record of success, as well
as expanding partnerships with republishers and resellers around
the globe. We hope to expand so that we can provide the best
overall products and services for backup, disaster recovery, disk
and storage management and privacy to users in every
English-speaking market."
Terms of the agreement were not released.
