Datacentrix retains reigning champ title at this year's HP awards event


Johannesburg, 21 Jan 2015

Datacentrix, a provider of high-performing and secure ICT solutions, was the recipient of an astounding 10 awards - including "Overall Partner of the Year" - at the recent annual HP Partner Awards gala dinner, the second consecutive year the company has won the lion's share of these accolades.

In addition to taking the top award, Datacentrix was named "Networking Partner of the Year", "Storage Partner of the Year", "Enterprise Group (EG) Partner of the Year, "Industry Standard Server (ISS) Partner of the Year", "Retail Point of Sale (POS) Partner of the Year, "Business Critical Systems (BCS) Partner of the Year" and "Printing and Personal Systems (PPS) Partner of the Year".

Two Datacentrix staff members were also singled out for attention, with Marc van der Poll being named as HP's Outstanding Channel Technical Person, and Paul Pederson as joint Channel Sales Person of the Year.

"Datacentrix's success at the HP Partner Awards can be attributed to several factors; most importantly, the alignment of the two company's strategies and the dedication of the entire Datacentrix team to our partnership," explains Thibault Dousson, HP South Africa country general manager for PPS. "Building on this solid relationship can only take both to new highs into the future," he adds.

Says Tony de Sousa, enterprise business unit manager at Datacentrix: "2014 was an exceptional year for Datacentrix's partnership with HP - not only were we named as one of only five local HP Platinum Partners, but garnering the type of acknowledgement received at the recent channel awards was our crowning glory. These achievements certainly emphasise our dedication to HP for more than a decade, as well as our strategic approach and continuous skills investment. Nonetheless, these awards would not have been possible without the commitment of our team, and we would like to extend our congratulations to both Marc and Paul for their recognition this year."
