Frost & Sullivan Honors EMC with Asia Pacific Storage Vendor of the Year Award
Singapore - Thursday, June 16, 2005
EMC was selected after acing the stringent measurement standards employed in the benchmarking study by Frost & Sullivan.
"EMC has consistently displayed robust market presence in the high-end and midrange storage hardware segment,” says Saleem Bikanerwala, Principal Consultant, Frost & Sullivan.
“With a strong focus on product innovation, the company has also in recent years successfully transformed itself from a storage hardware vendor to a complete storage solutions company resulting in high year-on-year growth. The rapid trend towards networked storage and the decoupling of server/storage purchase decisions also places EMC in a favorable position to further enhance its market share,” he added.
Steve Fitz, President of EMC Asia Pacific and Japan, says, “"We are honored to receive this prestigious award from Frost and Sullivan. This recognition is significant because it is direct endorsement and validation of our performance, strategy, product excellence and service differentiation by customers. With the broadest portfolio of solutions in the industry from hardware, software to services, EMC’s role in the infocomm sector has greatly expanded.”
Fitz continues, “Today, EMC provides critical information infrastructure to both mature and emerging markets to further propel their growth. Our acquisitions of software vendors such as Legato, Documentum, VMware and Smarts have put us in a better position than ever before to serve the information management needs of our customers. EMC continues to innovate and push the boundaries of traditional storage networking, and we are committed to helping more organizations enhance their information lifecycle management strategies.”
