D-Link Named a Top Midmarket IT Vendor Executive for 2015 by The Channel Company
FOUNTAIN VALLEY, Calif., Sept. 29, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- D-Link announced today that Albert Ling has been named to The Channel Company's 2015 Top Midmarket IT Vendor Executive list, which features the industry's most influential vendor executives serving midmarket customers.
This year's list features more than 60 executives who have made a long-term commitment to and investment in the midmarket – organizations with 100 to 1,000 employees and/or $100 million to $1 billion in annual sales. The vendor executives on the list are strategic leaders in their organizations and have proven track records of meeting the needs of senior IT leaders of midsize organizations.
"Ling is an integral member of D-Link's team, and is dedicated to serving midmarket customers and providing the resources, strategic insight and channel ecosystem to help D-Link's partner organizations succeed in today's business landscape," said William Brown, president, D-Link Systems, Inc. "This recognition from The Channel Company is truly an honor and underscores D-Link's continued commitment to delivering exceptional solutions to meet the needs of midmarket CIOs and IT leaders."
Ling oversees all product go-to-market and channel strategies for D-Link and its portfolio of products specifically designed for the midmarket. Under his leadership, D-Link continues to earn market share in the midmarket, selling more complex solutions for connectivity and surveillance into growing businesses. The current D-Link channel program includes loyalty incentives, free online training, volume incentive rebates, and priority tech support. In addition, D-Link's deal registration for enterprise products is rich and protective for resellers, and the range of products offered allows partners and customers the ability to work with a single vendor for end-to-end surveillance solutions delivering cameras, networking, software, and storage.
"The executives named and the companies they represent are committed to serving the midmarket and are dedicated to creating programs and solutions that meet the unique needs of this market," said Robert C. DeMarzo, Senior Vice President, Event Content & Strategy, XChange Events. "Our Midsize Enterprise Summit brings together one of the largest gatherings of midmarket CIOs and is an ideal venue to honor these deserving leaders."
Executives on the Top Midmarket IT Vendor Executive list will be recognized at the Midsize Enterprise Summit (MES), to be held in Los Angeles Sept. 20-22.
