As a reseller, DataProof qualifies for higher tiered discounting due to previous engagements with other clients, and the strategic partnership between the distributors and vendors and DataProof inherently brings the vendor more business. As a VAR, Dataproof also partners with other vendors from time to time, helping the client when deciding which solution is truly best for their unique environment rather than trusting each vendor who believes their solution is best when it may not be the case.
