Juniper inks Aussie distie agreement with Dicker Data

Juniper Networks has signed on Dicker Data as a distributor for their entire portfolio within Australia.

Effective today, Dicker Data will be granted access to all of Juniper Networks' product portfolios including networking, security, applications and software-defined.

Chairman and CEO of Dicker Data, David Dicker says,  "I'm pleased to be announcing our new relationship with Juniper in Australia.

"Juniper Networks is known globally for their expertise in the networking and security industry and we're looking forward to working with them to further grow their already substantial presence in the enterprise and mid-market segments.

Juniper networks now has a total of four local distributors for its solutions portfolio, as Dicker Data joins Westcon, Tech Data and Avnet.

Dicker Data says it has deployed specially trained sales and pre-sales resources for the immediate servicing of customer demand.

The refresh also aimed to deliver the ability for partners to address new market opportunities through new specialisations based on emerging opportunities including Cloud, Security, Data Center and Software Development.
