Exhibitor Comments  

What the exhibitors said about Channel Expo 2009:

"Ideal, really. We're about to book a stand for next year."
Nik Hilliard, MD, RET UK

"Dell was making its debut at Channel Expo and it was important to us that we made a big impact. We think we succeeded. The stand location was great and I have to say the footfall was impressive, as was the quality of our fellow exhibitors' stands. We believe the event has helped us raise the profile of the Dell PartnerDirect programme significantly within the channel community and in that respect we achieved our number one objective. Thanks again."
James Wright, UK Channel Marketing Manager, Dell

"We were flat out straight awar from the moment the doors opened. We did really well and we are very pleased with the results."
Quinton Watts, Marketing Vice President, ESET

"The show was very successful for us. We signed two contracts and had about 80 quality resellers express real interest in working with us. We were busy both days and actually could not have coped with a higher footfall."
Christine Hawkins, MD, Zigor

"Visitor numbers have been good and we have been busy throughout the day."
Andrew Hall, UK Marketing Manager, OKI

"It's the perfect opportunity for us to meet people in the wider channel and also to meet new guys that maybe don't know the new technologies that Intel are involved in. The turn out has been very good and we had great feedback from our presentation in the CRN theatre. A really good show for us."
Neil Watson, UK Channel Marketing Manager, Intel

"Channel Expo has been very good. I wasn't sure how it was going to turn out because of the general economic downturn, but it's been very good. I think we've got some great leads."
Hugh Furness, European Sales Manager, Wasp Barcode Technologies

"It's been a good show and we have rebooked for next year."
Colin Mann, Marketing Manager, Uniworld

"It's our first expo and it's been brilliant so far."
Rupesh Vara, Senior Sales Manager, ITDealer.com

"It's been absolutely excellent. I've been talking non-stop. We've been targeting resellers for 12 months. When we phone them up they don't believe it, but they've been able to see SoftXpand in action here."
Roger Anscombe, MD, Miniframe

"It's been a great show. And we've met many people who didn't even know about leasing. We're just waiting for Incisive to come to the stand so we can book for next year."
Chris Lloyd, CSI Leasing's UK Sales Manager
