#Dell ’s $91 billion acquisition of storage firm #EMC may be the largest deal in tech history but its rival #Commvault is unfazed, describing the purchase as an opportunity to steal market share while the competition is “distracted”.
Commvault global chief marketing officer Chris Powell, speaking exclusively to The Australian, said Dell’s blockbuster deal
And opened up a can of worms when it came to integration.
“With Dell buying EMC, the first thing you think of, what’s Michael Dell known for? Is it efficiency, or innovation? I think we all know it’s about efficiency,” Mr Powell said.
His confidence stems from completing a significant overhaul of internal operations that show the US-based data and information management firm is well placed to capitalise on a market that demands reliability.
“A few years back there was a big recognition from our senior leadership and our CEO that we had to change a number of things across our organisation,” Mr Powell said. “We were being hit by huge shifts in the market around pricing, major changes with key partners, and there was a fear that we were losing focus on our core business.”
