Quantum Picks Up Technology Award (HITS)

Quantum was named 2016 Technology Partner of the Year by Axis Communications at its 11th annual Axis Connect and Converge Conference (ACCC 2016). Axis, the global leader in network video, presented its annual awards to top channel, software and technology partners. Quantum’s surveillance partner ecosystem has tripled in size over the last year and now includes nearly 40 partners. This growth reflects a shift in how the security community views storage, increasingly treating it as a foundational element of a surveillance strategy.

As a Quantum Advantage Partner™, Axis works closely with Quantum to deliver proven joint solutions for today’s demanding video surveillance and security environments. Axis has joined the company on stage at industry events such as ISC East 2016 to help security professionals understand the importance of storage in video surveillance workflows. The companies have also collaborated to address the unique surveillance and security challenges found in many healthcare environments.

“Quantum’s multi-tier storage makes the combination of storage performance and data retention more affordable,” Wayne Arvidson, Vice President, Surveillance and Security Solutions, Quantum, said. “Axis was early to recognize the role intelligent storage plays in enabling its customers to retain data longer and incorporate real-time analytics into their surveillance program. As a result of our collaboration, many Axis customers now have more budget available to spend on cameras and analytics, for an effective video surveillance environment.”
