Strong vendor relationships and multi-vendor solutions

We’re proud of the strong relationships we’ve built with our vendor partners, which enables us to add maximum value to you as our customer. Each of our carefully chosen partners is a technology leader, that has a unique range of solutions and typically strong technology integration with many of our other vendors – examples of this include NetApp’s partnerships with VMware, Commvault, Veeam, Fujitsu and ProLion.

As no single vendor has the best of everything, our ‘deep and broad’ understanding of our partner’s portfolios allows us to use a blend of technologies from multiple vendors to build the optimal solution for your organisation – this is something that is not possible to achieve if you are working directly with the vendors.

SAXIS have been partnering with NetApp since 2015 and we are proud to provide high-quality solutions using NetApp’s cutting edge technologies. NetApp often feature at our events, where we are always delighted to share their latest developments and technology insights.

Their laser focus on data, rather than hardware, has enabled them to build the most advanced on-premises, hybrid-cloud and multi-cloud storage portfolio on the market, and this has been expanded over the last few years with the addition of Virtual Desktop management and cloud cost optimisation solutions.

SAXIS have been VMware partners for well over a decade, back when they only had a handful of staff in the UK, and their hypervisor is almost certainly the most common piece of technology in our customers infrastructures.

VMware have remained the clear hypervisor leader over this time and in recent years they have also become the leader in Hyper-converged Infrastructure software. All of our vendor partners have very strong integration with VMware technologies, be that server, storage, data protection, disaster recovery, cloud migration or networking solutions.

SAXIS had been a successful EMC partner for over a decade, focusing on their core enterprise-grade storage and data protection solutions, and their integration with VMware. When Dell acquired the company back in 2016 the acquisition gave SAXIS the opportunity to introduce Dell’s world-class server and networking solutions to our customers.

Dell Technologies now has an unmatched portfolio of products, enabling them to provide complete end-to-end solutions to any small, mid-sized or enterprise organisation.

SAXIS have been a Commvault partner for over a decade, during this time they have evolved from being a supplier of enterprise-grade backup technology for physical servers and VMs, to supplying the most feature rich data management solution on the market – providing backup, disaster recovery, archiving, compliance, eDiscovery and data governance for all major hypervisors, clouds, operating systems, applications and storage platforms.

Unlike their competitors, who struggle to deliver equivalent functionality from numerous separate products, Commvault delivers all of its capabilities from a single extensible platform.

Veeam and SAXIS have been working together for many years to provide the industry’s best virtual machine backup and recovery solution to our customers. Veeam are now broadening out their capabilities, well beyond their roots, to fully embrace the cloud, including protection of Office 365, AWS and Azure.

Veeam work very closely with NetApp to tightly integrate their solutions, including complete end-to-end management of local and remote snapshot backups and automation of NetApp SnapMirror replication for disaster recovery testing, failover, failback and compliance documentation creation.

Ruckus adds a key element to the SAXIS solutions portfolio, state-of-the-art unified wireless and wired networking, with the industry’s best Wi-Fi Access Points and the most flexible choice of management options (controller, controller-less and cloud).

Ruckus switches provide optimised integration with their Access Points, along with industry leading stacking capabilities, and their laser focus on bringing the simplicity of Wi-Fi management to wired networks is helping to reduce the administration overhead and lower costs.

We’re proud of our partnership with Fujitsu, in 2018 SAXIS were awarded their Best SMB Partner, as we work together to build innovative solutions for our customers.

Fujitsu is one of the top five information and communication technology providers in the world, with over five decades of experience. Their core product portfolio consists of state-of-the-art servers and HCI solutions, storage platforms and converged infrastructure solutions, data protection appliances and tape systems – they also have strong strategic partnerships with NetApp, Commvault, Veeam, VMware, Nutanix and Microsoft, to name just a few.

SAXIS are always looking to introduce innovate solutions to our customers, so with data security becoming increasingly important we have recently partnered with ProLion who focus on adding value to core NetApp storage technologies, whether they are hardware appliances, software-defined or running in the cloud.

Working closely with NetApp they have built solutions that provide zero-day ransomware attack protection and file recovery, file system auditing, indexing of local and remote snapshot backups with single click restore, file backup to cloud object storage and file system analytics.

Cloudian was founded with a clear vision: to revolutionize data storage by bringing object storage to the enterprise. Unlike the expensive, complex, and proprietary object storage products which came before it, Cloudian’s technology allows all sizes and types of users to realise the benefits of object storage in their own data centers.

Protect your data against any threat imaginable. Whether you’re up against ransomware, natural disasters, or operational failures, our partnership with Rubrik has you covered.
