Tech Data will expand its solutions for secure, local and remote software application access with the addition of Ericom Software technologies to its line card.

The distributor, based in Clearwater, Fla., said it will now offer Ericoms PowerTerm WebConnect software solutions.

“While reliable remote access to software applications provides clear productivity gains for any business with traveling, home- or field-based employees, Ericom solutions also can be used to cut costs and streamline a business entire software management strategy,” Stacy Nethercoat, Tech Datas vice president for Software Product Marketing, said in a statement.

Because Ericoms PowerTerm WebConnect is a server-based technology, it streamlines the management process, giving organizations just one system to track, Nethercoat added.

Ericoms PowerTerm WebConnect product line provides a range of application-access solutions for Windows and Linux desktops, notebooks and other client computing systems, and makes sense for businesses in the SMB (small and midsize business) space, according to Tech Data. The distributor said it will distribute the entire PowerTerm WebConnect line and support resellers through dedicated product management and technical resources.
