"Our partners are critical to our success and to the support of our growing customer base worldwide," said Igor Saulsky, EVP of Worldwide Sales for PHD Technologies. "We have introduced Channel Xpress to serve our partners and customers and look forward to welcoming new members into the program in 2009 and beyond."

Channel Xpress partners have high praise for esXpress' product capabilities and the consequent implications for resellers. INX, a provider of virtual hosting services is one of PHD Technologies' top partners in North America. Larry Ellison, the Marketing Programs Manager at INX, stated that, "INX was testing many data replication solutions for our virtualized hosting service ... [esXpress'] unique Virtual Backup Appliance was just what we were looking for to keep with our philosophy of using virtual appliances whenever possible. esXpress provided superior performance and functionality for our customers and instantly became our standard for backing up virtual machines and replicating them offsite."
