Datacentrix, a provider of high performing and secure ICT solutions, has been named as an IT Business (ITB) Premier Partner by energy management company, Schneider Electric, highlighting its strong focus on the data centre space. The company has also maintained its status as a certified Gold Reliability Partner.
"Reaching this level of partner certification with Schneider Electric means that Datacentrix has made a serious investment, skilling up its data centre optimisation team in order to provide local customers with quality expertise when it comes to their power and cooling needs," says Brian Lendrum, business development manager for Datacentrix Datacentre Optimisation Solutions.
"Becoming a Premier Partner holds numerous benefits for Datacentrix, as it allows us to purchase directly from Schneider Electric's ITB division, instead of via the channel, allowing us to provide customers with a more cost-effective solution. In addition, we are exposed to dedicated sales and marketing support from Schneider Electric South Africa.
"Datacentrix is serious about its focus on the data centre space as well as its partnership to Schneider Electric," Lendrum continues. "In fact, it is our aim to reach Elite level partnership in the near future, the highest certification level offered by our partner in the area."
"Schneider Electric recognises the importance of a strong, collaborative relationship with our partners, making it a focus to retain and develop key partners in various sectors of our business," states Bruce Grobler, IT Business director at Schneider Electric South Africa. "In fact, the entire business model of our organisation is based on this principle.
"In light of this, we are pleased to welcome Datacentrix to our Premier partnership level and look forward to extending our already lengthy relationship in times ahead."
