Stratus Technologies Inc., a US-based provider of continuous availability products, has appointed Duncan Cooke as Business Development Manager, UK and Europe.
Duncan will be working with system installers, technology partners, consultants and end-users in the electronic security market to identify sales opportunities for the Stratus software, everRun Enterprise. He will also be looking to build alliances with companies offering mission critical applications to ensure end-users are aware that the risk of downtime can be negated.
With a career within the electronic security industry which spans 28 years, Duncan has held senior sales management positions for several companies, including Arecont Vision, HID Global, G4S Technology and Johnson Controls.
Duncan, pictured, said: “I am excited to have the opportunity to drive Stratus’ business development activities in the UK and mainland Europe. Heightened security awareness has meant that more than ever it is crucial for Access Control, Building Management, Fire, Intruder Alarm, Perimeter Protection, Video Management and PSIM systems to be effective around the clock.
“Unlike high availability, back-up and clustering solutions, I believe everRun Enterprise® will increasingly attract the attention of manufacturers of electronic security solutions and system integrators as the impact and consequences of downtime are fully realised. With no application, software or server modifications needed, and with no failover or reboot required – everRun Enterprise is a highly effective continuous availability solution offering end-users absolute ‘peace of mind’ for their critical security applications.”
Duncan can be contacted on +44 (0) 7391 865953 or by email: [email protected].
