SINGAPORE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--SolarWinds (NYSE:SWI), a leading provider of powerful and affordable IT management software, today announced the expansion of its Ingram Micro distributor relationship. Tapping further into Ingram Micro’s network as the world’s largest technology distributor meaningfully extends the SolarWinds® market presence in the Asia-Pacific region.
Building on the success of its existing relationship with Ingram Micro in Singapore and Hong Kong, the expansion further extends the reach of the SolarWinds IT management software portfolio in China and Indonesia, as well as Pakistan and Afghanistan, to include key industry verticals such as finance, insurance, manufacturing, and other commercial sectors. The expanded relationship will also support the availability and access to the full range of SolarWinds networking, IT systems, database management, and security technologies for Ingram Micro’s customers.
Ingram Micro will also be distributing the SolarWinds MSP product portfolio, including SolarWinds Remote Monitoring and Management (RMM), to its customers in Singapore, Hong Kong, Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia, and the Philippines. In addition to distribution, Ingram Micro will be using the MSP portfolio to provide Network Operations Center (NOC) services to their customers to help them achieve scalability, provide new revenue opportunities, and to create an efficient service delivery resource.
Mike Zilis, EVP global group president of Asia Pacific at Ingram Micro, said: “With the current volatility and disruption in the cyber world, organizations are pressured to increase their vigilance on securing their IT systems and assets. SolarWinds is a timely and important addition to our existing vast enterprise portfolio that enhances our offering to the channel as a solution aggregator. We are confident that this relationship will extend the reach of SolarWinds solutions to the channels and additional services to offer.”
