Ingram Micro has extended its distribution agreement with Acronis, expanding the availability of Acronis’ cloud data protection solutions offered via Ingram Micro to nine countries outside of its initial agreement covering the US.

According to Monday’s announcement, channel partners worldwide will soon have access to Acronis’ solutions, which include backup, disaster recovery, and secure file sync and share. The countries included as part of the expanded agreement include Belgium, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Spain, Sweden and the UK.

The expanded agreement also means Ingram Micro is now the premier distributor of Acronis’ solutions.

Acronis Data Protection Platform and solutions work across any cloud or hybrid cloud environment, the company said. It launched the platform in July, adding support for Mac OS X clients, and making the file sync and sharing software it developed as a cloud service available.

“The addition of Acronis to the Ingram Micro Cloud Marketplace and new premier status in the U.S. demonstrates our commitment to identifying and delivering best-in-class solutions and cloud services that help channel partners drive business transformation, gain a competitive edge and increase profitability,” said Paul Bay, executive vice president and chief executive, Ingram Micro U.S.

The Ingram Micro Cloud Marketplace offers access to a variety of cloud solutions from a single online portal. Through the marketplace channel partners can deploy and scale cloud solutions to a global customer base.

“We are extremely pleased that Ingram Micro has selected Acronis as a preferred provider of data protection solutions for its Cloud Marketplace and Advanced Solutions organization. What makes our expanded relationship unique is that Ingram Micro can now distribute Acronis software, broker Acronis services to cloud resellers, and sell Acronis cloud solutions to service providers — greatly extending our partner reach and value,” Serguei Beloussov, co-founder and CEO at Acronis said in a statement. “We believe that leaders like Ingram Micro play a critical role in the adoption and growth of cloud services, adding value by acting as the integrator, product manager, and cost manager for partners. Ingram Micro partners worldwide can now have a best-in-class choice for complete data protection that is integrated with the Ingram Micro platform and can be easily customized and tailored to the end-user’s needs.”
