Arrow ECS to Resell FalconStor

Arrow Enterprise Computing Solutions, a business segment of Arrow Electronics Inc., and FalconStor Software, Inc., have signed a new agreement for Austria, Switzerland and Southeastern Europe effective on 1st July 2010.

Arrow ECS distributes FalconStor’s data protection solutions and is expanding FalconStor’s channel in these countries. Arrow ECS is the first distributor for FalconStor in Serbia, Croatia, Slovenia, Hungary, Bosnia, Macedonia, Albania and Kosovo.

"Our decision to team with FalconStor aligns with our strategy to provide a comprehensive portfolio of enterprise storage solutions," said Paul Karrer, managing director for Arrow ECS Internet Security AG. "This agreement will add great value to our portfolio, and the alliance will enable FalconStor to address a broader market through distribution."

"Arrow ECS provides excellent channel experience and market know-how as well as a deep reseller base. Especially in the region of Southeastern Europe, we see a new growing market for FalconStor’s entry level products and appliances, such as FalconStor Continuous Data Protector (CDP) and FalconStor’s data protection solutions for VMware," said Guy Berlo, vice president Central European Sales and Operations.
