GFI Software Partners with ADN for Exclusive Distribution in DACH Region

In a strategic move aimed at bolstering its presence in the German-speaking markets, GFI Software has recently appointed ADN Distribution GmbH as its exclusive distributor in the DACH region, covering Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. This partnership marks a significant advancement in the decade-long collaboration between GFI and ADN, which is headquartered in Bochum, Germany. GFI Software is globally recognized for its innovative AI-driven solutions tailored for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), and this enhanced distribution strategy is poised to accelerate its growth and service offerings in the DACH area.

ADN Distribution GmbH, one of the largest and most respected distributors in Europe, is set to take over responsibility for all subscriptions, partners, and end-users previously managed by ICOS Deutschland GmbH and ALSO Deutschland GmbH. This transition aims to create a highly efficient and optimized distribution channel, enhancing support and delivering maximum value to both partners and customers.

Eric Vaughan, CEO of GFI Software, stated, "Consolidating our distribution in the DACH region with ADN provides a more robust foundation for delivering better service to our partners. We are committed to equipping them with crucial training, resources, and access to our AI-based solutions, along with the personalized support they deserve." This partnership reflects GFI's unwavering dedication to developing a high-impact ecosystem to serve businesses throughout the DACH region, especially its Kerio customers, by prioritizing their unique needs. With the introduction of innovations such as GFI AppManager, RADAR AI, MailEssentials AI, and Eloquens AI, the necessity for a partner like ADN—with extensive reach and the ability to scale alongside GFI—became increasingly apparent.

Hermann Ramacher, CEO of ADN, expressed enthusiasm about the expanded collaboration, saying, "Extending our partnership with GFI Software directly reinforces ADN’s mission to offer advanced IT solutions through our trusted partner network. Since 1994, we have established ourselves as a value-added distributor in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland, excelling in cloud services, security, and AI technologies. This positions us exceptionally well to support GFI's innovation agenda and assist partners and customers in the DACH region. We are excited to work with proven solutions like GFI KerioControl and GFI KerioConnect." Moreover, ADN looks forward to welcoming new distributor partners and their customers to its ecosystem.

To ensure a smooth transition for GFI’s partner network and end-users, meticulous planning has been undertaken. ADN's proven track record, extensive regional presence, and deep expertise in cloud services, security solutions, and AI technologies position it as the ideal partner to drive GFI's next growth phase in the DACH market. GFI Software is at the forefront of integrating AI capabilities across its product portfolio, transforming how businesses manage and secure their digital operations. With ADN as a strategic ally, GFI aims to deliver a suite of AI-based solutions to the DACH region:

  • - GFI AppManager AI: A unified cloud-based IT management platform equipped with advanced monitoring and real-time alerts.
