At Pogo, we\u2019re always looking at ways to give users access to better technology. That’s why we’re such huge fans of Open Storage and Nexenta. Anything that gives our customers Enterprise features without proprietary price structures is a win\/win in our book. However, we can\u2019t reach everyone and there are lots of storage resellers looking for products that make sense for their customers. We thought to ourselves, \u201cWhy don\u2019t we bring open storage and Nexenta to them?\u201d\u00a0So we did!<\/p>\n
The Pogo Storage Reseller Program brings certified solutions to VARs who would not normally have the infrastructure to produce or support these systems on their own.\u00a0At Pogo, we have the infrastructure to engineer and produce systems, and perform logistics like shipping RMA parts.\u00a0Most of all, we have a trained, experienced sales and support team with several years\u2019 experience designing optimal solutions, and keeping those solutions up and running in the field.<\/p>\n
This fits in perfectly with the business model of a VAR.\u00a0VARs are generally vertically-focused, or have gained \u2018trusted advisor\u2019 status with a key customer base. VARs understand their clients’ wants and needs far better than we do and at the same time, they want to offer a solution like Nexenta with all the advantages that come with an open source platform. They need a trusted source to provide an open storage solution that’s well-engineered, certified, and backed by the best support available.<\/p>\n
Pogo Storage provides that source, and a whole lot more. We live, eat, and breathe this stuff. \u00a0It\u2019s what we do. Deployed a petabyte of open storage? \u00a0Done that. One of Nexenta\u2019s oldest partners? Yup. Able to leap tall buildings in a single bound? \u00a0Well, you get the idea…<\/p>\n
