SANTA CLARA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Avaya Holdings Corp. (NYSE:AVYA) announced today that CRN®,
a brand of The
Channel Company, has recognized Avaya in its 2018 Cloud Partner
Program Guide, a list of leading technology vendors with cloud-related
partner programs that enable and accelerate the growth of solution
providers’ cloud initiatives.
The CRN 2018 Cloud Partner Program Guide serves as a valuable resource
for solution providers navigating the growing cloud marketplace,
assisting them in finding technology suppliers with ground-breaking
cloud offerings and partner programs. To meet the requirements for
inclusion in the Cloud Partner Program Guide, tech vendors must have
unique partner program benefits that deliver cloud infrastructure or
applications.
“With so many options available in the cloud marketplace today, solution
providers often have a difficult time deciding which vendors offer the
best program to complement their business strategy,” said Bob Skelley,
CEO of the Channel Company. “The CRN Cloud Partner Program Guide helps
to simplify the process by researching and identifying the cloud partner
programs with the most comprehensive combination of resources, support,
training, and financial incentives. Our 2018 guide includes a strong
combination of innovative companies who support their partners needs and
help them to succeed.”
Avaya Edge is an innovative channel program built on Avaya solutions and
partner’s expertise with accelerated rewards and benefits. The program
offers partners the flexibility to choose their level of participation
and achievement of competencies. For Avaya's fiscal year 2018, the Avaya
Edge program was enhanced to provide an opportunity for partners to
differentiate themselves for excellence in Avaya Cloud, provide a bridge
for partners transitioning to Cloud and expand the opportunity for more
partners to receive benefits.
“It is an honor for Avaya to be listed in the CRN Cloud Partner Program
Guide for our commitment to helping our partners, because we know it’s
the best way to serve our customers,” said Tom Phillips, vice president,
cloud channel sales, Avaya. “We are dedicated to helping our partners
and continue to enhance our team and customer engagement solutions both
in the enterprise and midmarket segments, as well as cloud-based and
subscription services through our Avaya Edge program. Our partners are
critical to Avaya and our customers’ success and we continue to invest
in our partner community.”
“Many channels struggle with the transition from predominantly
on-premises sales to hybrid and cloud sales,” says Robin Gareiss,
president of Nemertes Research. “Avaya Edge provides a feature-rich, yet
not too complex, program for channels that encourages cloud sales with
an impressive incentive program and tiers to reward success.”
The Cloud Partner Program Guide will be featured in the October issue of
CRN and can be viewed online at www.crn.com/cloud-ppg.
