SINGAPORE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--EVault, Inc., a Seagate company (NASDAQ:STX), today announced a strategic partnership with Memory World, a leading distributor of computer memory, digital storage solutions, digital media players and network access storage including both NAS and SAN solutions in Singapore. Memory World was selected to distribute EVault SaaS, EVault Endpoint Protection and EVault Software in Singapore, further expanding EVault’s reach in this fast-growing market.

In addition to benefiting from EVault Software, EVault SaaS, and EVault Endpoint Protection, Memory World customers will be able to store and retrieve their data from client devices as well as servers, databases, and whole systems and will have the flexibility to define where and how they store their data.

With a rapidly growing technology sector and the largest population of any region in the world, APAC represents a burgeoning market for EVault and cloud solution providers. In November, research firm Gartner predicted that IT spending in the APAC region will reach $743 billion in 2013, an increase of nearly 8 percent over 2012. Software spending in the region is expected to total $33.9 billion, up 11.9 percent from the previous year. Memory World is one of the most successful and well-known distributors of storage array solutions for the SMB and Enterprise market in Singapore.

“We’ve seen firsthand from our customers and resellers in Singapore the increasing demand for more dynamic, secure and fail proof cloud-based backup and recovery solutions. Until now, we were unable to find a vendor who could meet those demands,” said Marshall Wan, General Manager at Memory World. “As this region matures, it’s critical we partner with solution providers that can offer the best cloud services the market has to offer. With EVault’s established and proven track record in delivering cloud-connected data protection solutions, we have found the ideal partner to meet these needs now and in the long term.”

EVault Software and EVault SaaS provide secure, reliable and efficient protection of an organization's critical data on premise or directly through the cloud and centralizes backup and recovery of data on all computers distributed throughout an organization. EVault Endpoint Protection offers an all-in-one backup, recovery and data security solution to control data across an enterprise's mobile workforce. Geared towards mid-market and enterprise-level businesses, EVault solutions are optimized to perform in multi-site, multi-platform environments, ideal for protecting operations in remote and branch office locations.

“International expansion has been a key strategy for EVault over the past several years, and we’ve particularly seen growing demand for our services in Asia,” said Paul Hartzell, vice president of Asia-Pacific operations for EVault. “Memory World has been a premier IT storage solution provider in Singapore for more than a decade and this partnership will open up new and valuable avenues for EVault products and services.”
