As part of the Master Distribution Agreement, KMI will set up a stand-alone business unit called Acronis India with teams, offices and operations located throughout the country, said Acronis in a statement today.
Acronis India will work with and support Indian resellers and managed service providers who want to sell Acronis hybrid cloud data protection solutions to businesses and public organisations.
The agreement brings the Acronis brand and its leading data protection solutions closer to Indian businesses and consumers by providing easy and local access to sales engineers, product personnel, and technical support, said the Singapore-headquartered Acronis.
"We chose Acronis because its platform is highly flexible with a unified management console that gives partners and end users ultimate control in how they deploy and manage their data protection solutions," he said.
"We are excited to extend our leading Acronis hybrid cloud data protection solutions to one of the fastest growing IT markets in the world," said Steve Goh, Acronis' Vice President and General Managerof Sales for APAC and Emerging Markets.
