Sophos appointed RSM CZ as new Gold Partner in the Czech Republic and Slovakia

RSM CZ, a respected supplier of consulting services and information technology, has been awarded the status of Gold Partner by the security leader Sophos. What’s more, the Sophos MSP Connect programme now gives customers access to the next generation of comprehensive managed security services.

Sophos, the global leader in network and endpoint protection, has announced the name of its new Gold Partner for the Czech Republic and Slovakia. The new partner is RSM CZ, a member of the RSM International global network who has successfully passed the demanding technical and business thresholds needed for the certification. Achieving the Gold level in the Sophos partner programme allows RSM CZ to offer to its customers ICT security solutions at competitive prices together with advanced technical and business support from the manufacturer. Besides achieving the Gold Partner level, RSM CZ also received certification for the Sophos MSP Connect programme which enables it to connect all customers to a single comprehensive and easy-to-use security solution of the next generation and to offer to customers Sophos security products as a monthly billed service.

RSM CZ has been active on the market for more than 25 years. It ranks among companies providing professional comprehensive IT services in security, cloud computing, business applications, IT, infrastructure, outsourcing and software development. At the same time, RSM CZ provides traditional economic consulting services in taxes, accounting, payroll processing and remuneration as well as in management consulting, mergers and acquisitions, corporate finances and trust services.

In the partner programme, Sophos provides to its more than 47,000 business partners access to many useful services and up-to-date information, product updates and marketing and support tools, online trainings and comprehensive pre-sale and post-sale support in order to boost their business and help them gain a competitive advantage. The Sophos MSP Connect programme combines more than 30 years of expertise and experience with fighting opportunistic and targeted security attacks. The benefits of the programme include besides integrating all solutions for endpoint and network protection in one widely recognised centrally-managed security platform also the opportunity to offer all products as a monthly billed service. The added value of this business model is that the costs for security are transferred from CAPEX to OPEX and that the licensing is more flexible.

RSM CZ has been one of our major business partners for many years. We appreciate the company’s exemplary pro-customer orientation, professionalism and personal commitment of all employees, for which we are very grateful. We believe that RSM CZ will fully utilise the benefits of the Gold Partner level and that our collaboration will continue to develop. Satisfied partners bring satisfied customers, which is the main objective of both our companies,” says Patrick Müller, Senior Channel Account Executive Czech Republic & Slovakia.

Sophos technology has always been a guarantee of a high standard of quality which enables us to provide to our customers the most advanced security solutions. With Sophos Synchronized Security and the unified platform Sophos Central, we can offer to our customers a comprehensive solution protecting against the threats of today’s internet environment such as phishing, malware, ransomware etc. We can do this among other reasons because of the unique collaboration between security elements in the network and end stations enabled by Sophos technology. Sophos MSP Connect now allows us to provide these services flexibly in accordance with our customers’ individual requirements. The status of a Gold Partner is for us a recognition of the high qualifications of our specialists who are able to design security solutions as well as large networks,” says Jan Doleček, Head of IT Infrastructure & Networking RSM CZ.
