Exabytes is proud to announce its win at the prestigious Putra Aria Brand Awards 2026, marking the second year in a row the company has been recognised by Malaysian consumers for its brand strength and market relevance. Exabytes was awarded the Bronze prize in the Cameras, IT, Office & Business Equipment category, standing alongside respected industry players Neuropower and IP Serverone Cloud Platform.
The award ceremony took place on the evening of 22 January 2026 at the iconic The Majestic Hotel Kuala Lumpur, bringing together some of the nation’s most trusted and admired brands across industries. Representing Exabytes at the ceremony was Michelle Yap, Vice President of Marketing, Exabytes Group, who accepted the award on behalf of the company.
A People’s Choice Award
The Putra Aria Brand Awards is widely regarded as one of Malaysia’s most meaningful brand recognitions because it is a People’s Choice award—one that money cannot buy. Unlike many awards that are judged by panels or influenced by commercial sponsorships, the Putra Aria Brand Awards are based on consumer voting and perception, reflecting genuine trust, preference, and loyalty from the public. In total, 24 categories were contested this year, making each win a testament to strong brand equity and consistent customer engagement.
Cameras, IT, Office & Business Equipment Category
In the Cameras, IT, Office & Business Equipment category, Exabytes competed among globally renowned and well-established brands. The Silver prizes were awarded to Lenovo and MSI, while the Gold prizes went to HP, Huawei, Epson, and Lenovo. Being recognised alongside such global leaders underscores Exabytes’ growing credibility and influence within Malaysia’s highly competitive technology and business solutions landscape.
This year’s Bronze win is especially meaningful as it marks Exabytes’ second consecutive Bronze award in the same category, having achieved the same recognition at the Putra Aria Brand Awards last year. The back-to-back wins signal not just consistency, but also sustained confidence from customers who continue to choose Exabytes as a trusted digital solutions partner.
Founded with a mission to empower businesses through digitalisation, Exabytes has spent more than two decades supporting entrepreneurs, SMEs, and enterprises with web hosting, cloud, digital marketing, cybersecurity, and eCommerce solutions. Over the years, the brand has evolved alongside the needs of businesses in a rapidly changing digital economy—while staying anchored to its core values of reliability, innovation, and customer success.
“This recognition is especially meaningful because it comes directly from the people we serve,” said Michelle Yap, VP of Marketing, Exabytes Group. “Winning Bronze at the Putra Aria Brand Awards for the second year in a row reinforces that our efforts to stay relevant, customer-centric, and trustworthy are resonating with the market. It is an encouragement for us to continue raising the bar.”
Beyond the accolade itself, the award reflects the collective effort of the Exabytes team—from product development and customer support to sales, marketing, and operations—working together to deliver consistent value and positive customer experiences. It also highlights the loyalty of Exabytes’ customers, whose votes and trust made the win possible.
Milestone in Exabytes’ GROW Digital Journey
Looking ahead, Exabytes does not see this recognition as a destination, but as a milestone in a longer journey. The company aspires to be nominated again next year and to move up the ladder by achieving Silver or Gold in future Putra Aria Brand Awards. This ambition aligns with Exabytes’ broader commitment to continuous improvement, innovation, and delivering even greater impact to businesses across Malaysia and the region.
As competition intensifies and customer expectations continue to rise, Exabytes remains focused on listening to its customers, strengthening its offerings, and building a brand that stands for trust, progress, and long-term partnership. Winning the Putra Aria Brand Award—twice in a row—is both an honour and a responsibility, one that Exabytes embraces with pride and determination.
With the support of its customers, partners, and dedicated team, Exabytes looks forward to reaching new heights, earning greater recognition, and continuing to be a brand that Malaysians believe in.
