PCR Tech and IT retail, distribution and vendor news
A new partnership between Westcoast and Absolute Software will see the distributor offer combined solutions to its network of over 5,000 resellers.
The deal will see Westcoast integrate Absolute Computerace into its portfolio.
Computerace allows organisations to persistently track and secure all of their devices. It administrators can remotely invoke security commands to protect data so they can ensure and prove that endpoint IT compliance processes are properly implemented and enforced.
Stephen Midgley, vice president of global marketing at Absolute Software commented: “We are focused on expanding our presence in EMEA and accelerating our channel activity is a vital stage in this journey. Partnering with Westcoast ensures that we are able to bring closer alignment with our technology peers in the markets that matter to us. We are confident that the relationship will not only help Westcoast’s reseller network add value to their offering, but will also see Absolute Software gain a stronger foothold in the market.”
Alex Tatham, sales and marketing director, Westcoast, added: “Managing a multi-operating system and environment with a multitude of static and mobile devices has become the stuff of nightmares for IT departments. So with increasingly complexity comes the need for a solution. Absolute Software allows iOS, Windows and Android environments to be managed by a single console.”
