Sunbelt Software, a French distributor of utility software for the Microsoft server environment, has appointed Infogenics, a high-end software consulting and sales organisation, as a direct reseller of its range of products.
The Sunbelt International Group, which includes Sunbelt System Software (SSS) EMEA and Sunbelt Software Distribution (SSD) in the Americas and Pacific rim, is the world's largest distributor of professional system management tools for the Windows NT and 2000 operating systems.
Chan Reddy, General Manager at Infogenics, says: "The Sunbelt Software range, which includes products from W.Quinn and NSI, plugs a gap in the Microsoft environment for industrial-strength security, fault-tolerance, high availability, and back-up solutions.
"As such, these products are a perfect match for Infogenics, which supplies best-of-breed applications, technical consulting services, and implementation skills for complex, high-end Microsoft environments."
Reddy says Infogenics is set to start an aggressive marketing drive for the Sunbelt product range, with a particularly strong focus on the NSI DoubleTake and W.Quinn Quota Advisor products. The company is making heavy investments in skilling its staff up for the products from Sunbelt, including sending them on international training courses with Sunbelt and its principal suppliers. To launch the marketing campaign in South Africa, Infogenics have invited a senior Sales Executive from Sunbelt France to participate in a National Roadshow, planned for the first week of April. She will be accompanied by a Technical Consultant who will train Engineers from Infogenics and our clients.
Gerald Capon, Paris-based MD of Sunbelt Software, says: "We selected Infogenics as a new reseller because of their widespread coverage of the South African market. Their combination of technical expertise and commercial acumen means that they are perfect partners for the lead products in our range.
"Products such as the Double-Take and GeoCluster fault tolerance and high availability solutions from NSI Software cannot be sold just as boxes. We will train Infogenics fully to be able to offer these innovative and economic solutions to major clients in South Africa."
Sunbelt has more than 15,000 customers in EMEA and the USA and annual revenues of around $20m.
