New training and sales support program additions drive higher partner margins
August 15, 2007, Barcelona - Acronis SAS
(www.acronis.com/es-mx/), a technological
leader in storage management software, today announced enhancements
to the Acronis Authorized Solution Provider Program.
Key among the new features is the True Rewards
Opportunity Registration Program. Gold, Silver, and Authorized
Volume Reseller Partners have the opportunity to earn up to 15
percent of additional margin on qualified sales that they register
with Acronis. To further demonstrate its commitment to the channel,
Acronis has adjusted its compensation model for its direct sales
organization to favor engagement with its partners.
In addition to the increased margins and sales
support, Acronis has also launched its Acronis Certified Engineer
(ACE) Training Program. This program offers technology
professionals the knowledge, skills, and credentials necessary to
deploy, administer, and maintain Acronis products. By becoming ACE
Certified, partners gain the technical expertise required to ensure
successful customer implementations and provide pre- and post-sales
support.
"Acronis solutions are an important component of
the professional services that we deliver to our customers to help
them keep their IT infrastructure running in the most efficient and
cost-effective manner," said Craig Sieve, chief operating officer
of Foedus, a leading provider of virtualization infrastructure
technologies and services based in Portsmouth NH. "The Acronis True
Image product family integrates well into the VMware and Microsoft
virtual infrastructures our customers are implementing. We firmly
believe that this certification program will add an extra layer of
assurance and value that we can deliver to them."
"In the past year, we have seen explosive growth
in our partner network," said Eric Dougherty, director of Channel
Sales at Acronis. "They are no doubt responding to the unique
business opportunity that we offer and the advanced recovery
solutions their customers demand."
