Northamber adds Bomgar to vendor stable

Distributor bolsters security offering with latest partnership

Bomgar has become the latest vendor to join Northamber's growing security stable as it looks to increase its UK footprint.

The deal will see the secure access control vendor work with Northamber's base of SMB resellers to reach new customers.

Earlier this year the vendor revealed it would be moving to an all channel model in the security sector following a raft of new product launches. The firm had traditionally focused on the enterprise space, but was keen to attract fresh business in the SMB sector, it said at the time.

Simon Thomas, director of EMEA channels and strategic alliances at Bomgar, said: "Northamber's 35-year heritage as a value-added distributor presents us with a well-established channel community to accelerate our growth.

"Its focus on solutions and industry verticals and its breadth of reseller reach and support is a perfect fit, which allows us to concentrate on continuing to enhance our technologies."

Alex Phillips, director of strategy at Northamber, added: "We are excited to partner with Bomgar and introduce them to our channel community as we see a great opportunity for its access management solutions to enhance our customers' offerings.

"Adding Bomgar to our security portfolio perfectly complements our existing disruptive security solutions which includes vendors such as iBoss and WatchGuard, offering a compelling choice for our customers."
