Austin, TX, August 22, 2022 — Buffalo Americas, Inc., today announced that CRN®, a brand of The Channel Company, has named it as a winner in the SMB External Storage category of the 2022 CRN Annual Report Card (ARC) Awards. This award honors the industry’s top technology vendors for success in providing high levels of satisfaction for channel partners through innovative products, services, and partner programs.
With 37 years of history, CRN’s ARC Awards recognize best-in-class vendors that are devoted to boosting IT channel growth through innovation in technology and partner strategy. Through the ARC Awards — known as one of the most prestigious honors in the IT industry — solution providers offer key feedback that commends technology manufacturers for designing channel-friendly product offerings, developing strong partner programs, and building long-term successful relationships with solution providers.
For the sixth year in a row staring in 2017, and continuing in 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, and now again 2022 Buffalo is recognized by CRN for their continued and consistent commitment to their channel partners. The 2022 award was also a full sweep for Buffalo in the Product Innovation, Support, Partnership and Managed and Cloud Services categories.
“We are honored at Buffalo Americas by this recognition from CRN and our channel partners for a sixth year and we don’t take for granted the responsibility of consistently performing for our resellers and customers” said Bill Rhodes, Director of Channel Sales at Buffalo Americas.
The ARC Awards are based on an invitation-only research survey conducted by The Channel Company. Responses from 3,000 solution providers across North America were evaluated in this year’s survey, rating 82 vendor partners across four criteria: product innovation, support, partnership, and managed cloud services. Scores were awarded in 25 major product categories in technology areas that are critical to channel partner success.
"It’s our pleasure to honor vendors that consistently deliver top-performing products and services to establish and foster successful channel partner relationships,” said Blaine Raddon, CEO, The Channel Company. “In addition to highlighting our winners, CRN’s Annual Report Card Awards provide vendors with actionable feedback and insight into their current standing with partners that can be incorporated into their channel strategies in the future. We look forward to offering our congratulations to all the award recipients at XChange 2022 in August.”
Winners will be featured throughout The Channel Company’s XChange 2022 conference, taking place August 21-23 in Denver, CO. Coverage of the CRN 2022 ARC results can be found online at www.CRN.com/ARC and will be featured in the October 2022 issue of CRN Magazine.
