About Holton & Associates

Starting a new and previously unknown, in South Africa, AntiVirus product called BitDefender in January 2004 was interesting and challenging in many ways. There was just Jonathan Holton heading up technical support , who had just returned from intensive and personal technical training on BitDefender in Romania, and Grayford Holton heading up sales.

The AntiVirus product market in South Africa , like most software products offered in South Africa, was found to be very competitive. We soon found, like one of the most prominent and independent  software reviewing companies, that the most well known AntiVirus systems were resting on their laurels created over the past ten years or so of extensive marketing and establishing points of presence throughout the dealer and retail market.

Old fashioned service, price and more service soon won over the most loyal of dealers and retailers to our product and personal service we offered. We publish the whole system (including boxes, CD's,
brochures, point of sale material) and deliver all orders to our customer premises by Couriers (all included in the price). Today, from very humble beginnings in January 2004, BitDefender for Desktops is now offered by all the major computer dealers and retailers throughout South Africa and the neighbouring states of Africa. We are now proud owners of our own premises in Randburg with stunning
views of Sand-ton buildings on the near horizon. Hence the name of the office park "Sandton View OfficePark" We have a staff compliment of seventeen persons and are fully BEE compliant.

The new range of software will compliment our offerings of BitDefender and we look for-ward to offering the various software packages with the same level of personal service and excellent pricing. Our slogan
says it all: "Providing software that reduces stress and provides for a more enjoyable lifestyle"
