MaXXan SIGNS EUROPEAN RESELLER AGREEMENT WITH COMPUTACENTER

MaXXan Systems Inc, an industry leading provider of intelligent storage networking solutions, has announced a new European reseller agreement with Computacenter, one of Europe's largest IT infrastructure services companies. Under this agreement, Computacenter will distribute MaXXan's Intelligent Application Switch, the MXV320, as well as the SG100 NAS Gateway powered by VERITAS software, and the SA100f disaster recovery and storage consolidation system powered by IPStor software from FalconStor. MaXXan displayed these solutions at last week's Storage Network World Eurostorage conference and is currently showcasing them at the VERITAS Vision shows in the UK, France, Germany, and Netherlands.

"We are excited to sign up Computacenter as our first European reseller," said Gerry Burr, MaXXan's European sales director. "Computacenter is the United Kingdom's largest provider of IT solutions and has a significant Fortune 1000 customer base across Europe. We see a tremendous potential for MaXXan's storage networking solutions, and Computacenter has the contacts to reach the European customers and continue our expansion. This relationship with Computacenter proves once again our commitment to the European market and strengthens our position in this market."

"As one of Europe's leading providers of IT infrastructure services, we know what our customers' needs are and we are always looking for companies whose products could revolutionise the market while satisfying the end-users' increasing storage requirements," said Simon Gay, storage practice leader, Computacenter. "MaXXan's storage networking products coupled with our IT expertise help customers optimise their existing environments in a simple and cost-effective way."

Earlier this spring MaXXan announced the opening of its first European sales office in United Kingdom. The Company has also established a sales office in Taiwan.
