Aptronics, a full service IT solutions provider to the local corporate market, has been appointed to the exclusive HP StorageWorks Elite Partner Programme. Aptronics, which has enjoyed HP Partner status for the past decade, was the first Diamond Partner (HP`s Black Empowerment Partner Programme) to obtain HP StorageWorks certification, and is also recognised as one of the leading HP Enterprise System Resellers in SA.
Aptronics is extremely proud to accept this high-level recognition of the commitment we have made to provide our customers with the best solutions that HP has to offer, says Appie Pema, Managing Director of Aptronics.
"As demand for storage and robust supporting architectures grows, industry drivers such as compliance with legal, governmental and other industry-specific regulations are also increasing data retention requirements for businesses today.
"We have therefore invested substantially in creating a pool of highly skilled resources, fully certified in all HP technologies, including the entire StorageWorks portfolio of products and solutions," comments Pema.
"The HP StorageWorks Elite Partner status enables the recipients to benefit from full integration into the technical, sales, marketing and industry organisations of storage within HP," remarks Vic Brits, Business Unit Manager of HP`s StorageWorks Division in SA.
"Designed especially for our best storage partners in Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA), who have consistently succeeded within the heterogeneous enterprise storage market, this programme will assist in maximising their relationship with HP, and also to enhance their service offering to customers," Brits advises.
"As a top-performing South African storage partner, with excellent HP technical skills and unparalleled dedication to customer service and delivery, Aptronics certainly deserves its place in this programme, and the increased levels of growth, profitability and customer satisfaction they will enjoy as a result of their participation," Brits comments.
"We believe that winning partnerships and a single-minded focus on customer service excellence are at the root of our continued success in our industry," Pema maintains. "For this reason, we have always recognised the importance of investing in quality, long-term partner relationships. Great partnerships such as the one we share with HP, and our StorageWorks Elite Partner status bears testimony to this belief. We look forward to continuing to further develop and enhance our commitment to our customers within the storage market as an HP StorageWorks Elite Partner," Pema concludes.
Aptronics is a black empowered IT solutions and service provider with an all-consuming belief in customer service, quality and integrity. As such, we have a sound industry reputation for putting principles into practice when it comes to having high standards of skills development and customer service excellence.
As a very active corporate reseller, Aptronics works closely with several key international vendors, including HP, Novell and Microsoft.
Aptronics` mission is to be the leading corporate reseller of world-class products and IT infrastructure, achieved through strategic partnerships, teamwork and integrity based on an inherent customer service ethic.
