CommVault has announced that it is expanding its' distribution channel through a partnership with Avnet Technology Solutions, to support the sale of CommVault Simpana software to value-added reseller partners throughout North America, including U.S., Canada and Mexico. The deal is also expected to drive CommVault Simpana software sales by providing CommVault resellers with access to complementary SolutionsPath offerings from Avnet.

The announcement builds on the complementary distribution agreement that already exists between CommVault and Avnet in EMEA and Australia, broadening CommVault's footprint within the global Avnet portfolio. It also builds on CommVault's existing distribution channel in North America, which includes an agreement with Avnet competitor Arrow Electronics, which CommVault signed on as its' first North American distribution partner back in 2007.

"This North American distribution agreement with Avnet is the latest example of CommVault's channel-centric strategy for offering existing and future reseller partners the purchasing flexibility, go-to-market programs and technical services they need to drive increased revenue and profit from selling and deploying Simpana software," said Mark Conley, director of North American channels for CommVault.
