New VeriStor Certified Technology Partner Program Validates Vendors that Demonstrate Exceptional Technology Differentiation, Company Stability and Customer Support


ATLANTA – April 29, 2009  - VeriStor Systems, the Southeast region’s leading enterprise data storage solution provider, today announced its “VeriStor Certified Technology Partner Program,” a certification program designed to validate solutions from multiple storage and virtualization hardware and software vendors for optimal use in an enterprise-class implementation. The certification program validates solutions that demonstrate exceptional characteristics in terms of technology differentiation, company stability and customer support while meeting VeriStor’s stringent criteria for true high performance, reliability and exceptional value.

“At VeriStor, we know that our customers require tried-and-proven storage and virtualization solutions that deliver a rapid return on investment,” said Ashby Lincoln, CEO, VeriStor. “Yet, we also know that too many traditional vendors haven’t lived up to this promise. By validating solutions in our state-of-the-art technology labs and through real-world customer implementations we can assure that the solutions we deliver have been optimized to meet business requirements, not just technology challenges. When we put the value of our name behind those vendors we deem to be ‘VeriStor Certified’ solutions, customers have confidence knowing that their product choices have met and surpassed stringent validation criteria.”
