Business Wire
Zix Corporation (ZixCorp), (NASDAQ: ZIXI), the leader in
email encryption services, has recognized Virtual Graffiti,
Inc. as the 2010 ZixCorp Partner of the Year. Virtual Graffiti
has partnered with ZixCorp as a value added reseller (VAR) since
2008 and has steadily increased its ZixCorp sales to become partner
of the year two years in a row.
“Our relationship with ZixCorp gives us access to the industry’s
leading email encryption services and enables us to meet increasing
customer demands that have surfaced in light of new federal and
state privacy regulations,” said Hillel Sackstein, President
and Chief Executive Officer of Virtual Graffiti. “With ZixCorp’s
product line, we can offer email encryption solutions to address
the needs of large enterprises as well as small businesses, and its
business model provides Virtual Graffiti with reliable and
recurring revenue year after year.”
Virtual Graffiti offers ZixGateway®, a
policy-based email encryption service, to medium- to large-sized
enterprises and ZixMail®, a desk-top email encryption
solution, to small businesses and individuals.
“ZixCorp has experienced great success, due in part to our
relationships with channel partners, such as Virtual Graffiti,”
said Rick Spurr, ZixCorp’s Chairman and Chief Executive
Officer. “We are proud to name Virtual Graffiti as Partner of the
Year for a second time, and we look forward to growing our program
for continued mutually beneficial success.”
ZixCorp’s VAR and MSP partners’ contributions to total new
orders grew from 21 percent for 2009 to 33 percent for 2010. Given
that ZixCorp’s overall new sales volume increased more than 30
percent for that same period, VAR and MSP new orders more than
doubled year over year.
The ZixCorp Partner Program offers participation on four levels
- original equipment manufacturer (OEM), diamond VAR, diamond
managed service provider (MSP) and associate VAR partner. VAR and
MSP partners receive various support advantages, such as dedicated
sales and technical representatives, training, qualified lead
sharing and marketing support, and can qualify for the ZixCorp
Partner of the Year.
“ZixCorp was a great fit for Virtual Graffiti. ZixCorp’s easy
ramp up period allowed us to experience immediate success, and its
dedicated support is a distinct advantage in continuing the success
of our relationship,” said Jonathan Mayer, Vice President of
Business Development for Virtual Graffiti.
