2019 Partner Program Guide: 5-Star Cloud Vendors

CRN designated the partner programs of these cloud computing companies as 5-Star.

Channel Forecast: Continued Cloudy

Sales of cloud software and services continue to grow even as businesses and organizations ponder which IT systems and workloads are best moved to the cloud and which ones should remain on-premises. That means increased demand for strategic services and expertise from solution providers, in addition to core product sales and implementation services.

That, in turn, means solution and strategic service providers are looking to their IT vendor partners for more than just products and discounts. Solution providers need technical, marketing, financial and sales assistance and expertise as they and their customers migrate to new computing models.

The 2019 Partner Program Guide offers information solution providers need to evaluate IT vendors they work with or are considering working with. The guide is based on detailed applications vendors submitted outlining all aspects of their partner programs.

As part of the Partner Program Guide, CRN designates some programs as 5-Star Partner Programs. Here we present the 5-Star designees in the cloud computing space (part 1).

Other slide shows in the 5-Star Partner Program Guide series running this week include companies that provide systems and data center, networking and unified communications, storage, peripherals and security technologies.
