Computer Design & Integration LLC Ranked Among North America’s Top 500 Technology Integrators by Everything Channel 

Teterboro, NJ – May 24, 2010 - Computer Design & Integration LLC (CDI) LLC, a data center infrastructure services company with extensive healthcare industry expertise, has been recognized by Everything Channel as one of North America’s top technology integrators. Named to the prestigious VAR500 list for the eighth consecutive year, CDI was No. 249 in the 16th annual ranking, up 14 spots from its previous listing.

CDI’s strategic differentiation comes from its strong skill set in core infrastructure technologies, including data center virtualization, converged networks and storage consolidation. The company, which has a depth of experience in the competitive healthcare and financial services sectors, has a particular focus on organizations seeking help in converging and consolidating their key data center environments.

The 16th annual ranking VAR500 list details the leading producers among technology integrators and technology solution provider organizations in North America based on gross worldwide revenue of hardware and software sales, as well as earnings from professional and managed IT services. This year’s list reflects the strength of the technology reseller channel as the ranking includes 182 new companies with four percent of the new entrants landing in the Top 100.

“Competitive differentiation for many businesses now comes down to the resiliency and efficiency of their data centers. Skyrocketing power and real estate costs are very real operational concerns. What’s more, data centers are central to new customer services and revenue sources. CDI has the experience to focus both on rightsizing current technology infrastructure to make the most of existing investments and in laying the foundation for future innovation through technology,” says Eric Bakker, President and CEO of CDI, which makes its corporate headquarters in Teterboro, NJ.

“The VAR500 is the who’s who of the solution provider community. Microsoft, HP, Cisco, Symantec among others are highly reliant on the VAR 500 to sell their products to businesses and collectively this audience generated more than $500B in sales in 2009. Even more importantly they solve customers’ biggest IT business problems through product integration, training, consulting and services. In companies large and small, the VAR 500 are considered integration experts, trusted business advisors and invaluable partners. We are honored to compile this list and represent this audience,” said Kelley Damore, VP, Editorial Director, Everything Channel.
