GEC NEWS WIRESophos is a 100% channel driven IT Security Company and the company continues to expand its partner ecosystem in the region. Sophos has a flexible, generous and dedicated MEA partner program. The core objective of the Sophos partner program is to equip partners with resources and training that enable them to sell, market, distribute and implement the company’s award-winning cloud, network, server and enduser protection solutions to organizations of all sizes.
The Sophos Partner Program for Middle East and Africa is based on sales performance and consists of four levels:
- Authorised Entry Level
- Silver Level
- Gold Level
- Platinum Level
Each level increases with the partner’s commitment to selling Sophos’ products.
The program includes offerings such as:
- Simple deal registration and discount structure: Sophos’s partner program is easy to implement, predictable, equitable and reliable. Partners can either interact with Sophos directly or use the Partner Portal to do so, which offers a set of tools to simplify deal registration and get pricing
- Strong product and solutions portfolio: Our partners have complete access to Sophos’s award-winning network, server and enduser protection solutions, including Sophos Cloud
- Sales and marketing tools: Partners can benefit from a flexible and generous partner program, with dedicated support, deal registration protection and competitive margins
- Training and certification: Focus on training and technical enablement helps partners increase the skill and competency of their sales and technical professionals, providing them with the knowledge to successfully sell, demo, deploy, support and service Sophos products
Sophos partner program provides access to the company’s comprehensive portfolio of market-leading endpoint and network security products, which have been engineered keeping its partners in mind. Partners are now able to manage all Sophos solutions for every customer through a centralized management platform, Sophos Central. Within Sophos Central is Sophos Central-Partner, a specialized dashboard that allows partners to distribute licenses, add new customers on demand, cross- and upsell services, drive recurring revenue and have a clear, real-time perspective on all customer activity. Partners can respond to security incidents faster and track alerts of all levels directly from the dashboard, so time spent handling incidents, including minor ones, is more productive and effective.
