Infoblox, founded 16 years ago in California, has been cashing in on the opportunities present in the Middle East over the last three years through its distributor and reseller partners. It opened an office in the region last year.
According to the company, trends such as cloud, Big Data, virtualisation, security and mobility are creating significant pressure and opportunities for customers across various verticals.
Cherif Sleiman, General Manager, Middle East, Infoblox, says, “When we look at security, we see huge growth prospects. Regional organisations will focus on security as the number one area of IT spend. DNS is a big area of opportunity for us in 2015.”
The company has put in place aggressive training and tailored certification programmes in order to enable its partners and to enhance channel coverage.
He says, “Ensuring that we have a very capable channel in every country in the region is top priority and we are well on our way. We continue to work very closely to focus on delivering more value to our customers and partners through our distribution including executing lead generation campaigns, conducting proof of concepts and demos, and training and certifying our key partners.”
According to the vendor, its direct touch and executive team are 100 percent channel focused and partners can expect immediate responses to their needs and queries.
“We look for partners with exceptional reputation of excellence in service and with solid expertise in applications, networking and/or security,” he adds.
