“We’re excited to partner with ExaGrid as Lifeboat’s first data backup with deduplication offering,” said William R. Botti, Executive Vice President, Lifeboat Distribution. “Our resellers will see this as an exciting, high margin incremental sales opportunity, as they help their customers move to disk-based backup with data deduplication solutions.”
ExaGrid’s channel program offers resellers high margins, strong deal registration, a highly trained co-selling sales team and a commitment never to take a reseller deal direct.
