Logicom, a prominent distributor of ICT products, technology solutions and services, has recently signed a partnership agreement with QNAP Systems, a network appliance provider that delivers cutting edge network attached storage (NAS) and network video recorder (NVR) solutions.
The agreement names Logicom as the official distributor of QNAP storage products and solutions across a range of countries in EMEA including Cyprus, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Kuwait, Oman, Bahrain, Yemen, Libya, Lebanon, Jordan, Iraq, Pakistan and Afghanistan.
Logicom will be distributing QNAP’s recently launched Turbo NAS TS-x21 and TS-x20 series for home users and home offices. Both series deliver superior performance for daily file storage, sharing, and data backup, and serve as ideal media centres for storing and sharing large multimedia files.
According to QNAP representative Tony Chou, “We are pleased to strengthen our distribution network with Logicom and we will be offering QNAP NAS; the new powerful Turbo NAS operating system QTS4.0 to the Middle East market. Logicom is a well-known leading VAD for IT products in EMEA region and we believe we will be able to offer a wider product range of QNAP NAS. Logicom will be able to deliver to home, SMB and the SME market a new experience for data storage, backup and sharing.”
With this agreement, Logicom further builds on its value added division which offers its partners technical support and presales assistance, technology training and education, as well as logistics and financial services. The addition of QNAP to its portfolio complements the company’s existing partnership with Western Digital, a long-time leader in hard drive technology design and manufacturing, as QNAP’s storage solutions support the WD Network Attach Storage Hard drives.
Demetris Demetriou, General Manager of Logicom Dubai, has stated, “NAS products are well received both from the home users as well as from the SMBs. QNAP is one of the leading brands in this segment and we anticipate that this move will augment our offering to the market with new technologies that can assist in the lifestyle of the high tech individual that can download videos, photographs, files and data.”
