The award, announced at the annual Citrix Distributor Conference in Barcelona was awarded to Computerlinks as the distributor who achieved the highest percentage growth, year-on-year, in UK, Ireland and South Africa.
David Caughtry, director of e-Business said, "This is a great honour for Computerlinks. We have won this award twice in three years, which in itself demonstrates to our partners and resellers that we are a trusted and focused distributor with a proven track record in growing Citrix' business. It is a true recognition of all the effort and hard work that both Computerlinks and our partner base have gone to in building the Citrix business over the last 12 months. We look forward to continuing our growth throughout 2008 and beyond."
Kevin Bland, channel director, Citrix Systems UK said, "Citrix, as a global organisation, has experienced very healthy growth throughout 2007 and Computerlinks recent award reflects this. We congratulate Computerlinks alongside all of our other UK and Irish distributors and Citrix Solution Advisors on their efforts in what has been a successful year. The most recent acquisition of XenSource and the logical next steps towards end-to-end virtualisation (servers, desktops and applications) will fuel further growth for 2008 and we would urge all IT resellers to speak to our distribution partners about the exciting possibilities in the coming years."
