“The channel community has been a long-standing pillar of Mitel’s go-to-market strategy so it’s an honor to be recognized for that commitment with this prestigious award”

Given the importance of IT vendor channel programs, each year CRN develops its Partner Program Guide to provide the channel community with a detailed look at the partner programs offered by IT manufacturers, software developers, service companies, and distributors. Vendors are scored based on investments in program offerings, partner profitability, partner training, education and support, marketing programs and resources, sales support, and communication. Based on that assessment, Mitel’s global partner program has been recognized as one of the elites among IT vendors for providing maximum value, resources and opportunities to solution providers.

The Mitel Global Partner Program provides partners worldwide with the tools, resources, training and diverse solution portfolio they need to create new revenue streams and deepen customer relationships. Over the past year, Mitel further strengthened its program capabilities with the introduction of new cloud and technical training programs, revenue-boosting incentives, an enhanced partner portal, and its recently announced Partner Managed model, which empowers partners to have more control over customer relationships and service delivery as customers transition to the cloud.

“The channel community has been a long-standing pillar of Mitel’s go-to-market strategy so it’s an honor to be recognized for that commitment with this prestigious award,” said Lana King, VP, Partner Programs, Training & Enablement at Mitel. “As organizations continue adapting to the demands of the new hybrid workplace, the role partners play in helping customers achieve a modern communications approach is more critical than ever. Our goal with the program is to support partners in that process by continually seeking ways to deliver greater value and new opportunities to maximize growth.”

“As innovation continues to fuel the speed and intricacy of technology, solution providers need partners that can keep up and support their developing business,” said Blaine Raddon, CEO of The Channel Company. “CRN’s 2021 Partner Program Guide gives insight into the strengths of each organization’s program to recognize those that continually support and push positive change inside the IT channel.”
