FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. – July 31, 2013 – DataCore Software, the premier provider of storage virtualization software, and CompuVision, a provider of business computer, networking, telecommunications and cabling services serving Santa Barbara, Ventura and San Luis Obispo counties for more than 19 years, today jointly announced that CompuVision has become a DataCore™ Premier Partner. CompuVision can now deploy adaptable and scalable virtualized storage environments that can better support the increasingly high performance needs of today’s businesses and their demanding application workloads through the use of DataCore’s SANsymphony-V storage virtualization platform. The hardware agnostic nature of SANsymphony™-V allows CompuVision to deploy the right blend of hardware solutions to best fit their customers’ budgets and meet existing and future needs while making it easy to get the optimal use out of their previous storage investments.
“Today’s IT infrastructures are continuing to grow and evolve dynamically and in the ‘software-defined’ age, organizations now must have tremendous power of choice just to keep up,” said John Hunt, CEO of CompuVision and Vision Communications. “By adding a hardware-agnostic storage virtualization platform to our portfolio, we are in a strong position to advise our clients on the best and most economical hardware purchases to serve their business needs. By partnering with DataCore, we are also putting ourselves in a perfect position to capitalize on the current revenue opportunities created by the ‘software-defined’ market.”
CompuVision and Vision Communications serve more than 1,000 clients in California’s Santa Barbara, Ventura and San Luis Obispo counties, providing technology design, implementation and ongoing support. The company’s clients represent a wide-range of industries including legal, medical, financial, manufacturing, construction and real estate. They are committed to helping each client balance innovation, reliability and security within their budget, while maximizing network and communications environments for optimal productivity. By providing a single point of expertise and support for a wide range of business technologies, CompuVision allows customers to avoid the frustrations of multi-vendor technology and focus on achieving the critical business goals that will enable them to grow.
DataCore’s SANsymphony-V R9 is an agnostic storage virtualization platform that enables companies to avoid hardware lock-in and purchase only the equipment that best suits their business goals. DataCore’s storage virtualization platform empowers customers’ existing storage investments and significantly improves business critical application performance. Advanced features, such as automated storage tiering, allow IT administrators to get the maximum return on investment from expensive hardware purchases, such as flash and solid state disks (SSD), assuring that only applications and databases that require powerful computing are ever stored on them, while less frequently used, non-critical data is sent to less costly and lower performing equipment or even cloud-based options.
“There is no doubt that technology has an enormous impact on how modern companies conduct business and they turn to IT solution providers to simplify their IT operations and guide them toward the services and solutions that will have the most significant impact on their success,” said David Ochser, channel chief, Americas for DataCore Software. “CompuVision has established a reputation for being committed to client success and offering the best solutions on the market to drive growth and efficiency. Through our partnership, CompuVision’s clients will have access to powerful storage virtualization software that will prepare them to meet increasing performance needs in the future while maximizing the value of their current hardware.”
DataCore Software’s Premier Partner Program enables IT consultants and solution providers to answer growing market demand for more cost-effective storage, such as the implementation of flash and SSDs into tiered storage networks alongside conventional disk systems to significantly improve application and virtualized workload performance, as well as making it easy to do migrations to the benefits or software-defined storage. DataCore’s recently enhanced, award-winning program builds on appealing characteristics which over the years have continually earned the company accolades in the reseller community. This includes channel-only sales that eliminate direct sales conflict, conscious regard for regional coverage by authorized partners in order to avoid over-distribution, and a customized on-boarding program to help rapidly close new business within the partner’s current client population.
