New, Changing Channel Programs: AT&T, Intelisys, TBI
ISVs were big last month, but traditional telco partners will want to see this list.
Independent software vendors (ISVs) are becoming a hot commodity in the channel.
Multiple companies announced specialized programs to cater to ISVs last month, including Azuqua and Pegasystems. There continues to be a growing plethora of IT vendors – whether they be in storage, security or cloud – that see indirect sales as a major key to scaling their businesses globally.
We also saw a couple of well-established vendors roll out new partner initiatives. Select AT&T Alliance Channel members can join a new public safety program. Intelisys identified the 16th member of its platinum partner club, and ViaSat added TBI to its master-agent rolls.
