Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire, UK - Phoenix Datacom, the UK's most technically competent provider of solutions and professional services to enhance the performance and security of networks and applications has been named "Partner of the Year" for its consistent sales success, technical expertise and professional approach to business. "It wasn't a hard decision," says Jacob Nielsen, CEO at Xena Networks. "Phoenix Datacom has been a really solid partner for us over the years, and choosing it as our Partner of the Year for 2013 is our small way to honoring its long-term commitment to Xena Networks." John Carson, Managing Director of Phoenix Datacom said, "We enjoy a very healthy working relationship with our colleagues at Xena Networks, and are delighted to receive the Partner of the Year award. In what is proving to be at times a challenging business environment, it is very pleasing to receive this type of recognition from one of our key partners." "When we started out, we knew the Gigabit Ethernet test and measurement industry was dominated by a couple of major players, so we knew it was not just important to have a great product - we also needed top-level partners," explains Jacob Nielsen. "In this respect, Phoenix Datacom has proven to be a huge asset for us in the UK. It has an excellent reputation and an impressive customer base which has responded very positively to our solutions." Phoenix Datacom joined Xena Networks as a partner in 2010 and has proven to be a highly reliable partner on numerous occasions. Its expertise has also benefited Xena's other partners, sharing business intelligence and technical tips that have frequently opened the right door or closed the sale. "Whenever we're planning new features or fine-tuning our business model, we've learnt the value of discussing it with our colleagues at Phoenix Datacom first. Often they have suggestions and feedback which make all the difference, saving us time by helping us get it right the first time," states Jacob Nielsen. "They are also a really nice bunch of people - easy to work with and blessed with a generous helping of British humour." Carson went on to say, "As demand for Ethernet traffic generation continues to rise, we consider ourselves extremely fortunate to have such a forward thinking and agile partner in Xena Networks - a partner that is easy to do business with, and that is very quick to adapt to the needs of the market."
