interAct, the value division of Ingram Micro Belux, announced today that it has become a value-add distributor (VAD) for VM6 Software’s VM6 VMex, the all-in-one IT virtualization infrastructure software. This agreement will further help interAct extend the reach and benefits of virtualization to small and medium-sized businesses (SMB) in Belgium and Luxemburg. interAct will actively support its resellers with marketing campaigns, certification training, sales training and other resources.

Traditional high-availability solutions can be costly, not always easy to implement and require technical expertise to manage. VM6 Software provides high-availability to Microsoft Hyper-V by integrating virtual servers, shared storage and clustering into a single software package. As a result, VM6 Software drastically reduces the cost and complexity of deploying a high-availability virtualized environment and makes it affordable to most SMBs. VM6 VMex increases the level of availability for all applications and ensures businesses meet service level agreements. VMex eliminates planned downtime, prevents unplanned downtime and helps SMBs recover instantly from outages.

Rudi Lenaerts, CEO of interAct and director of Ingram Micro Value Division said, “Highly available virtualized environments continue to be a primary concern for the SMB market. We reckon that VM6 Software will help us expanding our business and achieving greater growth. We are also pleased to become the only VAD in the Belux for the introduction of this innovative technology.”

“With a wide footprint in the Belux and deep knowledge of virtualization and datacenter technologies, interAct was the obvious choice for VM6 Software in establishing a first relationship in the region,” said Claude Goudreault, founder and CEO of VM6 Software. “We are committed to building long-term relationships, like this one with interAct, to help increase profitability and maintain the highest level of customer satisfaction.”

Resellers will rely on the strong pre-sales, post-sales, marketing and training support of interAct. Programs will include sales and certification training, workshops and marketing campaigns. Resellers who are interested in more information can contact VM6@interact.be.
