Westcon-Comstor has been named the 2024 CrowdStrike Global Distributor Partner of the Year.

Westcon-Comstor earned the recognition for its outstanding performance in driving adoption of the CrowdStrike Falcon® cybersecurity platform by leveraging its network of 12,000-plus channel partners across the Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) and Asia-Pacific (APAC) regions.

The Westcon and CrowdStrike relationship started in EMEA in early 2021, with more than 500 new partners being onboarded within the first two years and revenues from the partnership exceeding the US $100 million barrier.

Following success in EMEA, earlier this year the collaboration expanded to APAC with a distribution agreement covering the Southeast Asian markets of Indonesia, Malaysia and Thailand.

CrowdStrike’s Global Partner Summit brings the company's world-class partner ecosystem together to accelerate strategies to scale their businesses and stop customer breaches with the Falcon platform. The awards programme recognises partners that drive business outcomes and innovation with the Falcon platform, strengthening customer relationships and thereby exceeding revenue goals.

“It’s an honour to be named the 2024 CrowdStrike Global Distributor Partner of the Year,” said David Grant, CEO at Westcon-Comstor. “CrowdStrike is a strategically important vendor for us due to the strength of its technology portfolio and the crucial role it plays in the cybersecurity ecosystem. This award demonstrates both the vitality of our relationship and the significance of the role played by Westcon-Comstor in scaling adoption of the CrowdStrike Falcon cybersecurity platform.”

“Congratulations to all the 2024 Partners Award winners,” said Daniel Bernard, Chief Business Officer at CrowdStrike. “Stopping breaches is a shared mission, and our partners play a critical role. We celebrate partners who drive innovation, foster growth, and scale successfully to keep global organisations ahead of advanced threats.”
