Keepit teamed with IT distributor Ingram Micro to strengthen its position in the U.S. market as a global SaaS data protection provider.
This go-to-market relationship will bolster Keepit’s U.S. channel growth strategy, allowing VARs, MSPs and MSSPs to benefit from its vendor-agnostic cloud solution for data backup and recovery. This will specifically occur through Ingram Micro’s Xvantage digital experience platform.
Ingram Micro will help market, sell and support the Keepit portfolio, improving flexibility in purchasing and financing solutions that include Keepit’s SaaS data protection services.
“This relationship with Ingram Micro is yet another example of Keepit elevating its partner engagement commitment to the next level,” said Keepit CRO, Craig Bumpus. “As the importance of data security continues to rise, this agreement will provide Keepit with a new platform to further expand our footprint in the U.S. market.”
“We are excited to welcome Keepit and its vendor-independent cloud platform for SaaS data protection to Ingram Micro’s growing Network and Security portfolio,” said Jeffrey Drager, senior business leader, networking and security, Ingram Micro. “Managed cybersecurity is an area of growing complexity. It’s great to see Keepit work to simplify data protection and make it easier for channel partners to secure SaaS data.”
Keepit’s partner network, which launched in January, empowers channel partners, resellers, MSPs and distributors through its “partner only” strategy. The program is live in North America and EMEA.
