Keepit, a global leader in cloud backup and recovery, announced a new strategic go-to-market alliance with Ingram Micro, a leading B2B technology platform provider, to strengthen its presence in Canada and deliver advanced SaaS data protection solutions to a broader network of partners.
This partnership is designed to accelerate Keepit’s channel-first growth strategy in the Canadian market.
