Bloxx Launches EMEA Channel Recruitment Drive to Support Growing Demand for Third-Generation Web Filtering

Proactive support, fantastic margins and outstanding products to help distributors quickly grow sales

Bloxx, the Web content filtering specialist, today announced the launch of a programme to recruit additional EMEA channel distribution and reseller partners to promote and sell its Web filtering appliance range to support growing sales demand across the region. Bloxx is looking for distributors who currently specialize in IT security, have strong distribution channels and understand their local market.

Bloxx offers channel partners outstanding margins and proactive channel sales and marketing support to help distributors quickly ramp up sales activity in their region.

From a product perspective, Bloxx offers a great differentiator for channel partners in a crowded marketplace. Its patented Tru-View Technology analyses, categorises and blocks web pages in real-time, even if the page have never been seen before. This increases user and network protection, increases user productivity and reduces risk and liability. The appliance is easy to deploy and easy to use, which significantly reduces IT management time. In addition, Bloxx’s “no cost-per-user” pricing delivers outstanding benefits at a very competitive price.

Bloxx has a well-established customer base in all sectors from education to government to professional services and has been listed in the EMEA Deloitte Fast 500 and Red Herring 100 for the past two years running.

“Within a few weeks of starting to work with the Bloxx channel sales and marketing team we quickly uncovered a large number of sales opportunities,” said Eyal Achiel, Managing Director at iSecure in Israel. “Bloxx’s no-nonsense approach to business, their proactive technical, sales and marketing support and outstanding products has allowed us to quickly develop our local market.”

“The challenge for many channel partners, is that they are just one of many partners selling a particular web filtering product in their region, so they get very little proactive support from the vendor,” said Greg Hewett, Bloxx EMEA Channel Manger. “We will be actively supporting the channel, giving partners as much sales, marketing and technical support as to the need to help them quickly grow their sales.”

About Bloxx Tru-View Technology

Bloxx Tru-View Technology uses internationally patent pending technology to analyse and categorise web pages quicker and more accurately than other web filters which use manual URL classification and keyword scoring alone.

Using advanced intelligent identification and analysis techniques, Tru-View Technology provides instant classification of web content as soon as it is accessed, even if the content has not been seen by anyone before.

Bloxx Tru-View Technology helps organisations proactively manage users’ access to web content which might lower productivity, expose the organisation to risk and liability or pose a network security threat.

An estimated 1.5 million + users already benefit from enhanced security and performance with low administration and no cost per user charges. Additional protection is provided via anti-virus, anti-spyware and anti-phishing functionality.
