Program redesigned to provide extreme value for the channel
through a radically simplified incentive scheme, designed to
increase profitability for partners
Acronis ®, the global
leader in hybrid cloud data protection and storage, today unveiled
details of its new Partner
Program. Developed for resellers and distributors, the program
is intended to increase profitability and drive deeper engagement
with Acronis.
The Acronis Partner Program was created to support resellers and
distributors who drive the Acronis product portfolio through to
customers. The new program rewards partners with increased deal
registration rates to help partners protect their deals and get the
best margins in the market and rebates to support accelerated sales
and market share of Acronis. The program also provides marketing
development funds (MDFs) to partners who are committed to growing
together with Acronis and gives free licenses to all partners, so
they can be the first to use Acronis technology. Other benefits
include being displayed on partner locator, exclusive channel
promotions, free sales and technical training and phone/chat
support.
The Acronis Partner Program has three tiers, authorized, gold
and platinum, to distinguish and reward a partner's sales
performance and marketing collaboration.
"Acronis has market-leading products that help business of any
size to achieve data privacy and protection goals," said Pat
Hurley, General Manager, Americas at Acronis. "Our Partner Program
ensures those resellers and distributors, who are at the core of
our business, have a state-of-the-art program that gives them an
easy-to-use process for increasing margin and profits. Previously,
we had various incentives for various products, including margin,
rebates, deal registration and accelerators. Now we are making it
simple - straight forward margins and rebates based on the level of
partner in the program."
