Persystent Technologies, the leader in automated desktop availability and compliance solutions, today unveiled its Persystent Channel Partner Program. Through this innovative program, Persystent will offer its solution exclusively through a limited set of resellers and provide a host of training, co-marketing and support tools to help partners sell and deliver Persystent Enterprise.
Demand for the Persystent Enterprise solution is exploding based on the increasing need to ensure PC and laptop performance so IT resources can focus on business-driving initiatives. According to a recent Gartner Symposium Keynote report, "Eight out of 10 dollars [companies] spend in IT is dead because, while it is keeping the lights on, it isn't directly contributing to [their] business growth or to enhancing [their] competitive advantage."(1) Persystent provides a level of continuity and stability so businesses can focus on growth. "The need for automated availability and compliance capabilities at the network's edge is growing, making Persystent Enterprise a tremendous value-add for VARS and integrators," said Ray Weadock, president and CEO of Persystent. "The proven philosophy behind our channel program is to generate leads and awareness, make it as easy as possible for partners to sell, install and support our solution, and then reward our partners to promote their growth and ours." Persystent Channel Partner Program Components The Persystent Channel Partner Program includes: -- A complete deal registration system for qualified opportunities -- A full-service partner portal featuring product information, sales tools, campaign support and more -- Aggressive backend rebates for closed deals -- A pool of market development funds to support joint marketing events -- Dedicated territory managers -- Sales and technical training All sales leads generated by Persystent's aggressive marketing outreach programs are distributed to partners. Persystent Enterprise can be sold on a per-project basis or delivered in a managed services model. In both instances, the solution can be sold on a departmental or enterprise level basis. The solution complements legacy configuration and systems management solutions, enabling rapid adoption into a reseller's sales pipeline. "We are excited to be a charter member of Persystent's channel partner program," said Jerry Longsworth, Director of Commercial Sector Sales at Naknan. "The strength of Persystent Enterprise in automatically ensuring PC and laptop availability improves customer satisfaction and allows us to focus on initiatives that increase our strategic value to the client.
