Blue Turtle awarded NetApp Partner of the Year

Johannesburg, 05 Aug 2011

Blue Turtle Technologies (Blue Turtle) recently received two major awards from NetApp South Africa.

The awards included Growth Partner of the Year and top honour for Partner of the Year. Blue Turtle, a NetApp software partner, which specialises in NetApp ONcommand suite of products, beat the more established heavyweight hardware partners to achieve these accolades.

“NetApp is a 100% indirect organisation in South Africa, parenting is in our DNA. Partners such as Blue Turtle are like a diamond in a coal dump; very rare and hard to find. Although it was close, Blue Turtle stood out among our more traditional partners as unrivalled in their growth and ability to attract new customers that were previously out of our reach, and with little interaction with NetApp. Blue Turtle was outstanding! I am proud to be associated with them and extend our congratulations to Martyn, Gray and the Blue Turtle team,” says Matthew Barker, Channel Manager, NetApp.

Gray Farrell, Business Development Manager at Blue Turtle, concludes: “NetApp is a global leader in the storage arena and was recently listed as one of Forbes top 100 global innovators. Blue Turtle is pleased to be a partner and continually assess our offerings to the market to help businesses drive cost containment and improve efficiencies.”
