“Our engagement with Chillisoft over the past 12 months has been incredibly positive for Netskope in New Zealand. With Chillisoft’s support, we have formed exciting new go-to-market relationships with the likes of Cello, Spark and Advantage, enabling us to increase our market coverage, and drive business growth. One of the more unique aspects of working with ChilliSoft has been their capability and proactiveness around facilitating End-User engagement, bringing together the alliances that we share with Mimecast and ChilliSoft’s own ESET customer-base through both webinars and a recent four-city roadshow that will directly contribute to net new opportunities for all concerned. ‘Integrated technology outcomes’ are at the heart of delivering on an effective Cybersecurity strategy for an organisation – the same can be said of partnership between Vendor, Distributor and Resellers, which is what we experience thanks to Alex Teh and the ChilliSoft team. We look forward to more innovative engagement in the years to come, and to participating in this year’s ChilliSoft CybersecCon 2022 conference.”
