Dell EMC provided a preview of the new Dell EMC Partner Program, set to formally become effective in February 2017. Designed in collaboration with partners and drawing from the best aspects of the former Dell and EMC partner programs, the Dell EMC Partner Program will provide unprecedented business opportunity for partners and reaffirms Dell EMC’s strong commitment to the channel. Built on three core tenets—to be Simple, Predictable and Profitable—the new program will ensure partners have ample opportunity, business confidence and commensurate profitability regardless of their program tier.
In December, Dell EMC will reveal tier thresholds for partners, providing a full six months for partners to ramp up to the new criteria. Program tiers, developed to elevate Dell EMC partners over competitors and establish a clear path to up-level, will include Gold, Platinum and Titanium, as well as an exclusive, Titanium Black partner tier for the highest performing partners.
“The new Dell EMC Partner Program will bring together two great programs into one extraordinary program that enables our partners to leverage our industry-leading portfolio and accelerate their business quickly,” said John Byrne, President, Global Channel, Dell EMC. “Our partners wanted a program without unknowns, and this program provides that transparency while ensuring predictability and profitability. The opportunities to win big with this program and with Dell EMC are extraordinary. Our goal is to excite and delight this amazing and powerful partner community.”
“The new Dell EMC Partner Program is an industry game changer,” said Dan Serpico, CEO of FusionStorm.
