Foursys Ltd, a specialist in network security solutions, last month (March) achieved twelve Sophos Eduserv agreements, a record for both companies.
CAMBRIDGE, UK, April 5, 2011 – Foursys, recognised by Sophos as their UK Partner of the Year for the past nine consecutive years (2001-2010) and UK Public Sector Partner 2010 has set another Sophos record by capturing twelve Eduserv deals in a month.
Sophos provides market-leading security solutions for businesses of all sizes, as well as public sector organisations. In October, 2010 they signed an agreement with Eduserv to offer their Endpoint, Email, Web and Encryption products at substantial cost reductions to all of Eduserv’s affiliated organisations to help customers and prospects with their recent budget cuts.
Ruth Lawton, Foursys, Education Account Manager, said: “The agreement that Sophos and Eduserv has struck up can only be good news for Colleges and Universities. Foursys, being one of the few privileged partners to be able to offer Eduserv pricing, has had real success in allowing our customers to renew and upgrade while demonstrating cost savings and still provide the best protection for their students and network.”
Andrew Lawrence, Sophos Education Sector Account Manager, said: “We’re delighted to see Foursys capitalising on the Eduserv agreement. Ruth and her team have worked tirelessly to inform the Education sector about the benefits of Sophos and the cost reductions Eduserv brings and we look forward to continued success in the future.”
