Johannesburg, 29 Mar 2007
Datacentrix, a leading IT business integrator, providing infrastructure solutions and services to corporate South Africa, has announced that it has achieved Optim Certified Partner status with Princeton Softech, the market leader in providing enterprise data management solutions.
As the newest certified partner in South Africa, Datacentrix will provide support in implementing the Princeton Softech Optim solutions, enabling companies to align the management of enterprise data with business objectives to improve application performance, mitigate risk and control costs.
Since 2004, Datacentrix has been a local reseller of Princeton Softech's solutions, assisting South African companies seeking effective ways to manage enterprise application data throughout its lifecycle.
According to Aidan Mongan, Princeton Softech's European Director, Corporate Development and Alliances, Optim Certification means that Datacentrix has the qualified technical staff to provide customers with the necessary support and services at a local level.
"Datacentrix has put effort in representing Princeton Softech in the local market, and we are confidant that it will continue to generate new business opportunities and increase its market presence in South Africa," says Mongan.
"The South African market is a large focus for Princeton Softech, and we have demonstrated this recently with our increased support for Datacentrix, which we hope to see as one of our best performing resellers in 2007," he concludes.
According to Tony Smith, General Manager, Optimisation at Datacentrix, Princeton Softech has achieved international recognition as a market leader from research institutions, such as Gartner and IDC. While South African companies recognise this, they have first-hand experience of the need for a strong domestic service partner to make international technology work.
"Datacentrix's investment in training gives us the capability to deliver a quality service to our customers. There is a growing requirement for enterprise data management solutions, in particular database archiving, driven by regulatory compliance and IT performance needs, related to data growth in core systems. In response to this need, Datacentrix has developed its technical capabilities to meet these needs," says Smith.
Princeton Softech provides enterprise data management solutions that address critical business issues - managing data growth, upgrades and migrations, test data management, application retirement, data retention, privacy compliance and e-discovery. Princeton Softech Optim aligns the management of application data with business objectives to optimise performance, mitigate risks and control costs. Partnered with the market leaders in business technology, Optim delivers capabilities that scale across enterprise applications, databases and platforms. More than 2 400 companies worldwide - including nearly half of the Fortune 500 - rely on Princeton Softech's proven solutions to maximise the business value of their enterprise applications and databases.
