Avamar AvaTeam Technology Alliance Program Provides Extraordinary Opportunities for Avamar Partners


IRVINE, Calif., Jan. 31 / -- Avamar Technologies, Inc., a leading provider of innovative data protection solutions, today announced the launch of its latest partner program. The Avamar AvaTeam Technology Alliance Program consists of the industry's top ISVs, committed to delivering Avamar's innovative data protection solutions to the enterprise.

AvaTeam Technology Alliance Partners have access to the full complement of Avamar's tools and resources for creating, marketing, and delivering solutions on Avamar. These include discounts on Avamar, software and support, marketing program support, and increased sales opportunities.

"Avamar's data protection software is very interesting, and the new file system (AvFS) interface really opens a lot of integration points for their customers and partners," said Laura DuBois, Research Director, IDC Storage Software. "Avamar's new alliance program will expand Avamar's reach allowing more companies to leverage their truly unique, efficient collection and storage capabilities."

Avamar's innovative approach to storage will enable partners to leverage the strategic value of information from consolidated data stores. As data storage grows in the data center and in remote offices, bottlenecks to data protection continue to tighten, trapping data behind disk spindles, computer systems, and local or wide area networks. Avamar's Axion addresses the root cause of this challenge, by eliminating the need to move and store redundant data at the source.

"We're seeing a lot of customer excitement around Avamar's data protection strategy," stated Alan Atkinson, CEO of WysDM Software. "The new 3.5 release of Axion offers 3rd party vendors (like WysDM) the ability to extend solutions into Avamar environments."

Avamar is actively recruiting enterprise class vendors to integrate their solutions into its industry leading data protection software platform.

"We are very excited about our AvaTeam Technology Alliance Program," said Steve Kenniston, VP Corporate Development of Avamar. "Data protection is evolving at a very rapid rate. IT professionals no longer want to have multiple copies of data in their environment. The ability to leverage Avamar's consolidated information store allows IT to better leverage their data. This program will allow us to collaborate with leading technology companies and jointly integrate and market our solutions."
