Channel Partners play a crucial role in a company’s growth story. They are the representatives of the company in front of the customersDeskerahas always recognized the importance of its channel partners and have been taking various measures to strengthen the relationship. One of the many steps in this direction is creating its own Cloud Partner network in India –a first-of- its kind initiative. Those partners who are keen on selling only Cloud technology products have opportunity to be a part of this network. The program will help SME partners to enhance their competency for better understanding of Cloud and work on latest technologies.
What is Channel Cloud Partners?
A channel partner is anOrganization or Platform that provides services or sells products on behalf of a software/hardware Parent Company. Value-Added Resellers (VARs), Managed Service Provider(MSPss), Consultants, Systems Integrators (SIs), Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) and Distributors can be called Channel Partners. Deskera is going to bring these partners under one umbrella -Cloud Partners Network in India who will specifically sell only Cloud-based technology products.
Why is it required?
• Currently, there are no companies with structured partner network in India focusing only on cloud technology
• Most of the of hardware vendors are looking for alternative business options due to heavy reduction in IT Hardware business
• No company except Tally has ever worked to create its own partner network by Partner Farming
• Cloud is now widely acceptable and most of the customers want to shift their data on the cloud to enable 24*7 access from any where
• 67% of India’s population is below 35 years of age and they are eyeing latest services and solutions. They don’t want to remain dependent on system based solutions
• The second generations of the traditional partners have entered the family business and they understand the importance of Cloud. They want to become cloud solution partners instead of being Box Sellers
• Cloud systems are more secure
• Most of the Partners feel we don’t have the bench strength to do the work at locations where they don’t have geographical reach. Cloud can solve this concern as it requires browser and an internet connection only.
