“BullGuard’s focus on ease-of-use and customer service is the key to our significant growth, expanding from four to nine countries in one year,” said Morten Steen-Jørgensen. “To build on and sustain that momentum, we are expanding our distribution network and strengthening our operations which will allow us to better serve our customers and empower our resellers in the U.S. and Latin America.”

BullGuard’s all-in-one Internet security suite provides antivirus, antispyware, spamfilter and is the first Internet security product developed for gamers to increase performance. Customers also receive 5 GB backup and 24-hour support.

“By expanding into the Americas, we can better respond to the region’s growing demand for user-friendly Internet security solutions,” said Søren Ravn, CEO at BullGuard. “Consumers are much too busy to spend hours installing complicated software – that’s why simplicity is essential. We expect to do in the Americas what we did in England, where we have grown our reseller base 100 percent each year since we started there in 2004.”

Empowering Resellers

BullGuard offers its partners a reseller program that gives 25 percent revenue share on sales, renewals and upgrades. BullGuard recently launched the Reseller Lounge where partners can track their sales, upgrades, renewals and collect revenue.

It has met my expectations and my customers have never complained that it slows down their system.”
