Computer Warehouse Group attains Oracle status

Computer Warehouse Group (CWG), a leading Pan-African ICT solutions company, has attained the prestigious status of Platinum Partner of Oracle Corporation.

With this elevation, CWG has been placed in a preferred position to provide even more enhanced solutions to its growing customer base - not only in Nigeria but also in Ghana, Uganda and other African countries.

Oracle is currently regarded as the world’s number-one database organisation, possessing a robust technology to manage the growing transactions of business organisations.

Following the attainment of Platinum status, Austin Okere, Group Chief Executive Officer of CWG, said: “With its Platinum status, CWG is now one of the top-two Oracle partners within the region, with a high priority placement on the Oracle Solutions Catalog.

We are extremely excited by this most recent accolade, which is a further indication of the integrity and reputation of the CWG brand and serves to reinforce CWG’s commitment to its customers through value-adding solutions and optimisation of business efficiency.

“For CWG’s Hardware and Infrastructure division, CWL Systems and its software division ExpertEdge Software, this new Oracle status gives them a competitive edge over other solution providers in the region.

“CWG’s customers can be assured of more improved solutions that will enhance efficiencies in their businesses.”

CWG has invested tremendously in Oracle technology in the Africa market. As a result, through its highly professional team and cutting-edge technology, CWG has enhanced businesses across the West African region, enabling them to increase their productivity and business output.

With the current Platinum status conferred by Oracle, CWG has been given an opportunity to participate at Oracle’s Advisory board level - where challenges of customers within the region are brought to the fore and hence resolved promptly.

As a Platinum partner, CWG now has access to market development funds which will enable it organise road-shows on new product offerings from Oracle, as well as offer support for more products whilst presenting appropriate solutions to its customers.

Early in 2010, Oracle made one of the largest purchases recorded in the global Information technology industry when it acquired another software giant, Sun Microsystems. It is important to note that CWG was a partner at the highest level of Sun Microsystems.

Oracle provides the world's most complete, open, and integrated business software and hardware systems to more than 370,000 customers globally - including all the Fortune 100 organisations in more than 145 countries.

This combination of Oracle and Sun means that customers can benefit from fully integrated systems - the entire stack, from applications to disk which are faster, more reliable, and at lower cost.
