Whiptail partners with ViON

WHIPTAIL has announced a new partnership with ViON Corporation, who will now serve as an authorized provider of maintenance and support services for the entire WHIPTAIL product line. With this new agreement, WHIPTAIL continues to scale its support services across geographies and industries – like government – as more customers embrace and adopt the company’s flash-based solutions for their most pressing applications. ViON is a premiere partner that has a large and successful relationship with the federal government along with a strong presence in state and local governments and the commercial marketplace. They are the first authorized service provider that will take support calls on behalf of WHIPTAIL products.

“This partnership took off primarily due to the great success at WHIPTAIL with the defense and intelligence communities and ViON’s clearance and track record of successfully providing first level support for other vendors.” said Dan Crain, CEO of WHIPTAIL. “This partnership makes sense for WHIPTAIL as our customer-base continues to expand deep and wide. Together we will accelerate critical applications, provide exceptional services and support to customers."


WHIPTAIL’s flash-based storage solutions enable companies to run performance-demanding applications faster while consuming less energy, data center floor space and management time when compared to traditional disk storage arrays. By delivering faster applications organizations shift effort away from performance tuning and towards developing capabilities that drive business to new levels.


“WHIPTAIL’s ability to help customers dramatically improve the performance of any application they use through the use of their game-changing flash technology was a clear factor in why we chose to work with them,” said Tom Frana, President and CEO of ViON. “WHIPTAIL’s RACERUNNER OS provides the foundational layer necessary to keep pace with this innovation. This differentiator enables WHIPTAIL to bring advancing technology to market faster than other providers.”
