London, UK: 17 December 2009: Modern Networks has today announced it has achieved NetApp's highest professional services partner status, Authorised Professional Service Partner (APSP).  The APSP accreditation will enable Modern Networks to offer professional services in addition to its existing NetApp storage solutions portfolio.

Accredited NetApp APSP's represent those partners with the highest level of technical competency in professional service delivery for NetApp technologies.  To achieve the accreditation Modern Networks completed the program's rigorous training requirements, and will now have access to the same best-in-class tools and methodologies used by NetApp professional service engineers.

"Achieving APSP status further recognises our commitment to NetApp technology and drive to achieve business growth in the storage market.  The APSP accreditation means that we can now even more effectively address customer needs, not just by supplying tailored NetApp solutions but also by providing qualified implementation and support services." said Matthew Reeve, Managing Director, Modern Networks.

"Modern Networks has been a valuable partner for us over the years and a very deserving recipient of the APSP accreditation," said Pete Rawden, Channel Sales Director at NetApp.  "We have every confidence in the expertise and quality of service Modern Networks delivers to its customers and are very pleased to add the Modern Networks name to our list of APSP's.  We look forward to working with Matthew and his team in the future as the business continues to deliver an outstanding service."
