As such, we pride ourselves on adapting to these needs and ensuring our partners have the latest products, first-class training and support, and access to our expert ecosystem. We are confident that we are delivering new data management capabilities for our partners to help grow their business by empowering their customers to do more with their data, offering more choice and identifying new revenue opportunities for multi-cloud environments.

“We do all of our business through the channel, so we are excited to celebrate the success of our partners from the past year and recognise the work and talent in South Africa that is helping businesses achieve true business transformation.”
