Raya attains Symantec Platinum Partner status

Platinum Partner is the highest level of Symantec's recently launched Partner Program, in which thorough knowledge of Symantec's storage and availability technology is a pre-requisite.

As a Platinum Partner, Raya now has the opportunity to develop a closer professional relationship with Symantec, gaining access to a host of benefits, including marketing, sales, and technical resources, in addition to joint planning and furthering mutually beneficial customer relationships.

Ashraf Sabry, Vice Chairman and CEO IT, Raya, said,

"Achieving the Symantec Platinum Partner status is certainly a great asset for Raya, especially since it carries immense credibility in the market. As a matter of fact, several governments and large corporations have made this level of certification a pre-requisite for companies seeking to invest with them. As a Symantec Platinum Partner we will continue to deliver the highest value to customers and demonstrate our expertise in multiple Symantec solution sets, consistently attaining a high level of customer satisfaction."

Raya's excellent track record with Symantec-based projects such as General Organization for Industry, Americana, The Armed Forces, Bapetco and Misr Aluminum Company, has been a contributing factor in attainting the Platinum Partner status.

According to Mohammed El Nakib, Symantec Country Manager for Egypt and Levant, "Symantec is continuously looking for ways to enhance its relationships with its resellers, and the Partner Program is one of the ways we use to recognize excellence in the channel. Raya Corporation has been outstanding in its performance and has proved time and again to be a key partner to Symantec, and we believe that awarding them the Platinum Partner status is the best way to reward them."

In line with maintaining the appropriate professional environment for business expansion with Symantec, four of Raya's employees have been declared 'Veritas Certified Specialists', while two have been recognised as 'Veritas Certified Professionals'. Raya has also consistently achieved revenue targets and maintained high levels of customer satisfaction over the years.
