Duxbury introduces channel-focused Clearswift training initiative

Johannesburg, 12 Nov 2003

Specialist networking solutions distributor, Duxbury Networking, has launched a Clearswift training initiative in an effort to empower its channel partners` sales staff and technical personnel with the latest updates and important information on Clearswift`s range of products.

Duxbury has also - as part of the initiative - invested R200 000 in the training of its own pre-sales and technical personnel, therefore offering Clearswift expertise to its South African customers.

Training courses include MAILsweeper for SMTP, which enables the filtering and monitoring of incoming and outgoing e-mail, MAILsweeper (Exchange and Domino), for the scanning of internal company mail - depending on the operating system (OS), and WEBsweeper, for the filtering of the Internet and specifically Web pages.

"Through the training initiative we hope to grow Clearswift`s market share in SA and establish its products as well as our own technical and support ability in the content filtering space," comments Yolanda van Aswegen, Clearswift product manager at Duxbury Networking.

Duxbury has full access to Clearswift`s call centres, technical, pre-sales and development departments, which enables the distributor to offer the best services and support to its channel partners.

"We strive to keep our partner-base up-to-date with the latest versions of software, new patches and spam filters as well as any new developments that might be on the horizon," she says.

Duxbury announced its sole distribution agreement with Clearswift earlier this year. Clearswift products currently hold a 23% share of the global content filtering market.
