The collaboration between Climb and Seagate Lyve Mobile enables Solution Providers access to the Lyve Mobile Services through a trusted channel provider. Lyve Mobile fits nicely into Climb’s portfolio and is expected to enable the channel community to continue to provide value and services unique to the enterprise market’s needs.
“The channel community is key to solving our clients’ time to data challenges.

Data movement, data mobility, and data migration are key challenges across all major industries, and the channel community works on the front lines in solving these challenges for their clients.
