Storage and networking distributor Zycko has embarked on an EMEA-wide channel recruitment campaign to boost its Isilon sales into a range of new verticals.

The firm is particularly looking for VARs with expertise in verticals such as oil and gas, graphic design, desk-top publishing, marketing and digital content delivery. In total the distributor is planning to get around 10 resellers on board by the end of next month.

David Galton-Fenzi, group sales director at Zycko said: “Isilon is ideally positioned to service the pain points of businesses in a multitude of verticals such as oil and gas, that are looking for next generation clustered storage solutions. However to support this drive we need more resellers. VAR recruitment is fundamental.”

Tom Pettigrew, vice president of global sales partners at Isilon Systems, added: “We are pleased that Zycko has decided to pro-actively recruit additional VARs. Isilon’s clustered storage solutions are specifically designed to address the challenges created by the rapid and continual growth of digital content in a wide range of vertical industries, including oil and gas, among many others. With Isilon IQ, Zycko can deliver substantial return on investment and lower operating costs to customers while providing VARs with plentiful sales opportunities.”
