• iland Expands Global Channel Sales with Enhanced Partner Programmes, Cloud Computing Tools and New Canadian Data Center: After a successful transformation that doubled the company’s annual channel revenue, iland is expanding its global channel sales programme to address substantial partner growth and customer demand for its secure cloud backup, infrastructure and disaster recovery solutions in North America, South America, Asia, Europe, Australia and Africa. Built on proven VMware technology, iland’s solutions have traditionally been sought out by small- and medium-sized organisations that lack the resources and expertise to deploy, test and manage their own cloud-based disaster recovery, backup and infrastructure solutions. The company is now reaching a broader audience of enterprise customers through an expanding partner network of resellers and managed service providers that understand the value of migrating solutions to the cloud.
