NEC India and Vaultize enter into a strategic partnership

NEC India entered into a strategic alliance with Vaultize to jointly go to market with Vaultize's

enterprise cloud backup, sharing and mobility platform through NEC's cloud aggregator platform. This will enable both companies to further penetrate the market and offer a bouquet of services to enterprises.

NEC has built a global carrier grade Cloud Aggregation Platform to enable telcos and service providers offer cloud services to small and medium enterprises. As collaboration needs increase, these enterprises are looking for ways to share files more easily, and also store files safely on the Cloud, thus having access to those files, anytime anywhere. Vaultize's file sharing and backup cloud service will integrate into this aggregation platform, thus providing enterprise users with an added service that they

need.

NEC has had significant success with its Cloud strategy worldwide. Cloud is a global initiative for NEC, and India is one of the focus countries for NEC's cloud business. The company is well positioned in the market as a holistic cloud services provider and offering cloud solutions and services that contribute not only to the field of IT and networks but also societal, individual and corporate activities.

"Commenting on the alliance, Angira Agrawal, Associate Vice President, Cloud business, NEC India said, "NEC has built a world class Cloud Aggregation Platform, now deployed at over 25 service providers across 14 countries. We are happy to partner with Vaultize and broaden our cloud offering for the enterprise customers.

With this alliance, we hope to grow our customer base and empower them with greater choices."

Commenting on the occasion, Anand Kekre, CEO and Co-founder, Vaultize said, "We are pleased to announce this partnership with NEC.
