RALEIGH, N.C., Oct. 24 /PRNewswire/ -- GFI, a leading developer of network
security, content security and messaging software, has named LicenciasOnline

"I am sure that the alliance between LicenciasOnline and GFI will be very
profitable for the Latin American market. I strongly believe this because we
are experts in the business and we motivate partners by giving them additional
benefits and advantages. For example, our virtual platform allows them to
easily track purchase orders in real time and offers front-end and back-end
sales assistance. Moreover, we develop training, demand generation campaigns
and loyalty programs to enhance knowledge and optimize the business growth,"

among enterprises in the region.
"This agreement, without doubt, will increase sales of GFI's products in
Latin America during the contract period; the IT channel in this region is
solid and very experienced, and they are inundated with offers from various
vendors; LicenciasOnline's role will be to identify the markets and promote
GFI as the ideal solution," said Cecilia Zuvic Norton, Channel Manager for
South America and the Caribbean.

market for the Channel and GFI, and it will also be the trainer, the creator
of opportunities and the ambassador for GFI in South America; mainly for the
SME market. In LicenciasOnline, the channel will see an ally and not just an
