NetBox Labs, a leader in infrastructure and network management, has announced a strategic partnership with Aquion, a premier software distributor based in Australia. This collaboration aims to empower IT teams across the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region to modernize their infrastructure using the NetBox platform, which is recognized as the world’s most popular solution for network and infrastructure management.

The announcement, made on November 9, 2025, marks a significant milestone for both companies. Aquion will serve as the first distribution partner for NetBox Labs in the APAC region, providing access to enterprise-level capabilities for organizations within the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) 200, government entities, and global network providers. As networks become increasingly complex, the need for automation and effective management tools grows, making this partnership particularly timely.

According to Bill Lapcevic, Chief Revenue Officer of NetBox Labs, “There is a strong and growing NetBox community in Australia. Expanding our presence and ensuring leading organizations in the region have access to enterprise-level capabilities is the next logical step.” This partnership enhances the ability of customers throughout APAC to leverage the commercial benefits of the NetBox platform, backed by a trusted regional leader in technology distribution.

The NetBox platform serves as a foundational source of truth for network data, enabling organizations to operate, automate, and secure their networks effectively. The platform is designed to assist various sectors, including financial services, retail, and energy, by providing insights into their infrastructure and ensuring compliance with stringent security requirements.

NetBox Labs has developed a portfolio that includes the self-managed NetBox Enterprise edition and the fully hosted NetBox Cloud edition, both featuring advanced capabilities not available in the open-source NetBox Community version. Key features of the platform include:

– **NetBox Discovery**: Automates data collection for infrastructure observability and compliance.
– **NetBox Assurance**: Detects and corrects configuration drift to ensure alignment between intended and actual network states.
– **NetBox Copilot**: An AI-powered assistant designed to facilitate querying and managing NetBox data.

Stuart Hogben, CEO of Aquion, emphasized the demand for effective solutions in today’s IT landscape, stating, “NetBox has quickly proven to be the world’s choice for network and infrastructure management. We are pleased to offer the NetBox Labs platform to our reseller partners in the APAC market.” This partnership is expected to create a robust network of resellers and service providers to meet the needs of Australia’s largest sectors, including government, finance, oil and gas, mining, retail, and manufacturing.

Both companies aim to capitalize on the growing demand for IT solutions that enhance operational efficiency and compliance. The partnership is anticipated to drive significant growth for both NetBox Labs and Aquion in the APAC region, providing organizations with the tools necessary to navigate the complexities of modern network management.
