March 16, 2010 - PRLog -- Expand Networks, the leader in optimizing WANs for branch office consolidation and virtualization, appoints ACW Distribution (S) Pte Ltd (“ACW”), a leading IT enterprise solutions provider in Asia, as its distributor in Malaysia. With the appointment, ACW will distribute and market through its extensive reseller channel networks in Malaysia, Expand Networks’ WAN optimization, server consolidation and virtualization solutions that enable organizations to bridge the WAN proximity gap and increase performance of business critical applications.

According to a WAN Optimization Controllers Market Dynamics research by Frost & Sullivan, it is estimated that there will be “a steep uptake within the next 7 years, with a projected compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 41.2 percent in the Asia Pacific region, with certain countries registering more than 100% growth rate year-on-year.”

“We believe that the appointment of distributorship to Malaysia is a testament to the outstanding performance that we have achieved in Singapore. We will continue to market Expand Networks’ solutions with our partners and bring forth value to the organizations in Malaysia. We see the WAN optimization market to be a major growth area in this region. With increasing dependencies on networks and major business critical applications running across these networks, latency and responsiveness are two major challenges that need to be addressed and simply adding bandwidth would not be a sustainable option.

We believe that Expand Networks’ is one of the best WAN optimization leaders in the market and with the synergy and experience that we have acquired in the past years in the regional market, we are confident that we would perform well in the Malaysia market.” said Sam Chng, Regional Sales Director for South Asia and India, ACW.
