Charlie Collins Americas Channel Sales Director, Datadobi

Datadobi, Inc. appointed Charlie Collins as Americas channel sales director.

He will be responsible for developing and managing strategic plans with focus partners to accelerate the company’s overall channel momentum in North America. Collins will capitalize on the company’s long history of success in the channel and be responsible for fostering strong relationships with firm’s partner network.

He will report to Paul Repice, VP of Americas sales.

The firm is committed to providing solutions for partners and has had success in the channel throughout this year. In 2021, almost half of its revenue has been earned organically through more than 50 partners globally.

This new appointment comes shortly after the company announced the launch of a new DatadobiDriven Training Portal. The new portal, which was an enhancement to the DatadobiDriven Program focused on adding value for sales engineers, professionals, and administrators, set new industry standards and made it faster and easier for partners to be trained and prepared to sell, deploy, and support firm’s solutions.

Most recently, Datadobi announced new Starter Packsfor DobiMigrate ranging from 1PB up to 7PB that will enable channel partners and end users to accelerate digital transformation and conduct data management projects to any storage platform or cloud environment.

“Over the past several years, Datadobi has become the leader of the unstructured data management market and has formulated solutions custom-built to help partners and end users harness the power of the data in their hands,” said Repice. “As we continue to help enterprises bring order to their unstructured data, we look forward to relying on Charlie’s expertise to drive customer success in North America.“

With over 20 years of sales experience, Collins has developed a passion for not providing quality assistance to customers, and to his teams. Throughout his career, he has created relationships that increased revenue for the enterprises he has worked for. Prior to joining, he served as director of channel sales in North America at Tintri. He has also held executive roles in Secure Data Technologies, and ConvergeOne (AOS).

“Managing unstructured data has been an obstacle for many companies, especially this year as organizations continue to battle with the challenges of a hybrid workplace,” he said. “I look forward to working with the Datadobi team and channel partners to be able to educate enterprises around the world on the only truly vendor-neutral data management solution that can handle unstructured data both on-premises and in the cloud.”

The addition of Collins comes as the company has been enhancing its offerings for customers both on-premises and in the cloud. Notable announcements include the launch of a truly vendor-neutral unstructured data mobility enginev on the market and the introduction of the DobiMigrate API which allows organizations to programmatically configure unstructured data migrations using the API.
