About Roswel
Roswel was created in 1990 and incorporated in 1995 by Karl Ross and Paul Wellens as an IT Consultancy. The consultancy has worked with a variety of businesses including Inghams Enterprises and The Adelaide Crows Football Club. Projects have varied from network maintenance to converting major databases and migrating hundreds of PCs.
The company progressed to manufacturing and distributing computer workstations and servers, as a need for reliable machines was expressed by customers. Supplying complete computer infrastructure for both clients and resellers included service, support, and warranty. The consultancy was moved to a new company structure when distribution began, which included the introduction of new partners.
SteelEye Technology Inc distribution began in December 2004, introducing their LifeKeeper range of software clustering and high availability solutions, continuing the focus on security products.
In a distribution market dominated by a sales focus, Roswel is unique in being able to support the reseller on a technical level to deliver outstanding service to their clients. Currently, the company is negotiating for three new products in the security distribution, to continue in this specialised niche market.
