“As a company that aims to provide clients with a more cost-effective, on-premises and cloud storage-as-a-service (STaaS) experience, we can certainly attest to the reliability of Infinidat’s solutions, having not seen a single outage over the local installed base since our partnership kicked off early last year.
“Infinidat provides an excellent offering, and is well placed in the marketplace, particularly at the mid-sized to enterprise level,” Dendy adds. “Not only is the product set straightforward for our technical engineers to work on, our clients are also finding it extremely easy to use.”
At a Tier One level, Datacentrix enjoys a direct partnership with Infinidat, and has been trained to install and perform break/fix aftersales and warranty services.
