Our Emerging Tech list is where Solution Providers go to find these vendors. We congratulate all of the vendors for their innovation and creativity and their commitment to the technology sales channel," said Robert C. DeMarzo, senior vice president and editorial director, Everything Channel. Solution Providers tell CRN that they are driving a higher percentage of sales and profits from emerging vendors and their technologies in the midst of the economic downturn. This is due to emerging vendors delivering more innovative solutions at a better price for customers, which in turn drive higher profits for Solution Providers. The CRN Emerging Technology Vendor list includes 140 companies in a variety of markets including software, networking, virtualization, hardware, storage, security, networking and VoIP. Three emerging vendors include:
-- eFolder, an award-winning online backup, local storage and e-mail
archiving vendor with a 100 percent channel model that allows
resellers to put their own brand on the offerings.
-- Canonical, which offers a full range of services aimed at resellers
supporting Ubuntu, the fastest-growing Linux distribution in the
world.
-- CyberPatrol, which makes SiteSURV, a cloud-based Web security filter
targeted squarely at VARs serving the small medium business (SMB)
market.
The vendors that make the CRN Emerging Technology Vendor list were founded in 2001 or later, have revenue under $1 billion and have an active U.S. channel strategy. Final selection to the Emerging Technology Vendor list was made by the CRN editorial team after a review of submitted information.
