President & CEO of Efotek

"With the present archiving solution, 'ArchVault' and brand-new 'Archstor' and iSCSI-based SATA disc 'iConStor', our company intends to get a firm foothold in the domestic total data management solution market this year and targets 1.5 billion won in sales from the new products," said Cho Jung Hyun, president & CEO of Efotek.

President Cho explained that Efotek plans to secure clients of the new archiving solution in the during the third quarter, thus expanding market share. To this end, it will prepare a detailed channel policy and pursue contacts with varied marketing networks, explore markets by industry and seek strategic alliances with other storage companies, he added.

The company recently unveiled a new archiving solution, 'ArchStor', and a disc, 'iConStor', and will focus its sales power on these products. At the Special Storage Booth at SEK 2004, Efotek showed its strategic iSCSI serial ATA disc 'iConstor' and expressed its determination to consolidate its foothold as a storage solution provider.

"Major end-user groups of IT products have changed to broadcasting stations from former companies in these days, and domestic products will match their demand better than imported ones", president Cho said. On this judgment, Efotek developed archiving solutions and discs tailored for the domestic broadcasting situation through a year of research, he explained.

"Sales were stagnant during the first half due to the economic slowdown. But business will be active in the second half powered by ArchStor and iConstor", he added.
