Micro-P and QNAP Partnership Boosts Storage Offering

Micro-P, one of the leading IT trade distributors in the UK, has announced a new alliance with fast-growing Network Attached Storage solutions provider QNAP Systems, Inc. This new alliance is effective immediately, with product listings live at Micro-P.

QNAP is described as a fast-growing company dedicated to delivering world class NAS solutions, video surveillance and network media streaming products to the consumer, SOHO and high-end SMBs. With headquarters in Taipei, Taiwan and subsidiary offices in China and the US, QNAP is now rapidly expanding into the UK, recently broadening its product availability in this market. QNAP’s products are designed to offer high performance coupled with outstanding reliability, scalability, and ease of installation and use.

The demand for such products has grown at a rapid rate as both businesses and consumers have become increasingly reliant upon the use of data and digital assets. This has in turn driven demand for a variety of data management solutions including disaster recovery, virtual backup and private cloud. QNAP's product range includes a variety of rackmount and desktop storage solutions designed for these purposes, as well as NVR surveillance systems, available with a wide range of capacities and features depending on the user's requirements.

QNAP, through this new partnership with Micro-P, plans to reinforce its channel strategy in the UK. This is expected to result in a broader choice of QNAP products for potential customers.

"We're delighted to announce our alliance with QNAP. Resellers will be keen to offer product ranges from this rapidly growing company that is becoming a major player in the UK NAS market. QNAP will be an important partner for us as we grow our offering in the storage market, enabling us to provide resellers with network storage solutions for every market segment,” said Stuart Hatch, Business Manager at Micro-P.

“Our partnership with Micro-P will enable us to continue fulfilling our expansion plans for the UK market. With our customers ranging from the consumer to the SOHO and the high-end SMB, it was important for us to engage a strong distribution partner that is able to efficiently provide the channel with the solutions they require to support this range of customers,” said Brian Pan, International Sales Director, QNAP Systems.
