2017 Partner Program Guide: 5-Star Cloud Vendors

Increasingly Cloudy

Cloud computing remains the dominant macro-trend in the IT industry, changing the way many businesses and organizations consume IT. And that continues to drive major changes in the IT industry with both startups and established vendors offering new products and services for implementing, running, managing and protecting cloud IT

That continues to present huge opportunities for solution providers – and threats to those who fail to adapt. That means channel partners need to work closely with their vendors for technical, marketing, financial and sales assistance as they migrate to new models of computing.

The 2017 Partner Programs Guide offers the 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 Programs Guide, CRN designates some programs as 5-Star Partner Programs. Here we present the 5-Star designees in the cloud technology space.
