SolarWinds, which provides downloadable, enterprise-class network management software, has launched its operations in the Asia-Pacific region (APAC). Through its APAC headquarters in Singapore, SolarWinds provides multilingual sales, customer support, and services across Australia, China, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, New Zealand, Singapore and Taiwan.

As part of this expansion, SolarWinds also announced a new distribution relationship with M.Tech, a regional distributor of IT security, networking and storage products. The agreement expands access to SolarWinds' solutions for network engineers and IT organisations throughout much of the Asia market.

"Our expansion into the APAC region follows our successful move into the European and Middle East markets in 2007. The establishment of our regional operations will enable us to provide even better responsiveness and localised support for our growing base of customers and partners in Asia," said Mike Bennett, president and CEO, SolarWinds.

SolarWinds has experienced consistent, rising demand in the Asia-Pacific region, and our customers include major companies such as SingTel, TSMA, PetroChina and Telstra. The newly established relationship with M.Tech will allow SolarWinds to quickly expand its reach in Asia by providing key training and fulfillment support for area resellers in ten countries.

"An important element of SolarWinds' global success is working closely with trusted local organisations, like M.Tech, that have deep market understanding and brand recognition," said Victor Choo, director of sales - Asia, SolarWinds. "M.Tech's expertise in delivering critical enterprise-class services and their reputation for strong channel support make them an ideal partner in this market."
