ALPINE, Utah - (Business Wire) SageCreek Partners (http://sagecreekpartners.com/), a consulting company that has pioneered the concept of “mentor capital” for technology companies, has signed Arellia, Inc., provider of Application Control Solution and Local Security Solution for the Symantec Management Platform (formerly known as the Altiris Platform), as one of its newest accounts. Arellia is headed by CEO Michael Sainsbury, who was formerly VP Software Architecture for Altiris (now Symantec), and prior to Altiris, was the CTO of Computing Edge (acquired by Altiris in 2000). At Computing Edge, Sainsbury was the primary developer of the Altiris Notification Server, which included technology that is core to the strength of the Symantec Management Platform that is prevalent in the market today.
“Our relationship with Arellia is an exceptional opportunity for SageCreek to add value to the Symantec Management Platform with the help of one of the leading technology contributors at Altiris,” said SageCreek Partner Dwain Kinghorn.
“For Arellia, SageCreek Partners provides us with invaluable assistance in setting up our sales channels and recruiting the key executives we need,” Sainsbury said.
Arellia is a global company with presence in Utah, Boston, Los Angeles and Sydney, Australia. One of the key benefits SageCreek provides is the ability to speed Arellia’s expansion and success in the U.S. and EMEA, officials of both companies said.
In this process, Arellia continues a strong emphasis on support for the Altiris customer base. The company’s Application Control Solution and Local Security Solution currently support the 6.x versions of the Symantec Management Platform, and the company has announced plans to support version 7.0 of the Symantec Management Platform by the end of Q1 2010.
