Yesterday, Kaseya announced that is has enhanced its Partner Program with new tools, new tiers and more resources. This program, which was rolled out to 150 pilot partners, has already seen great success in the SMB community.
I was able to speak with Kaseya’s Roger Hodskins, vice president of global channels and alliances earlier this week, and he let me know about some of the highlights of the enhanced program. Roger Hodskins joined the Kaseya team in January 2014, and he had been instrumental in the evolution of the company’s partner program. He explained that the company recently combined its Authorized Seller and Certification programs into one, to better give SMBs the support they need in the changing IT environment.
Features of the Kaseya Partner Program include:
- Enhanced Partner Portal, that includes more business and technical resources and tools.
- The addition of API integration to allow Kaseya to connect with third-party applications.
- Updated reseller tools for onboarding, proof of concept, sales forecasting and end-user provisioning.
- Tiered rewards and incentives for the selling of Kaseya soltuions.
I would like to take a quick moment to touch on the API integration feature. When I spoke with Roger, he mentioned that Greater Intell, a recent exhibitor at Kaseya’s recent Connect event in Las Vegas, has been utilizing the API feature in very interesting ways. In fact, with their giSABER, they have allowed users to access the Kaseya platform as an extension. This extension enables users to access the platform from an iOS or Android App, and provides better visibility into the health of their IT landscape.
“Kaseya has now redoubled its efforts to invest in enabling partners and expanding our offerings with and through the partner community,” said Roger Hodskins. “Our partners today deliver significant value through certified implementation services, unique consulting skills, integration with complementary products, and more. We see the expansion of our global channel program as vital to accelerating Kaseya’s growth by providing increased flexibility and resources for our customers.”
Greater Intell is a Kaseya Technology Alliance partner, one of the many tiers available in the Kaseya Partner Program. Additional tiers are: Authorized Reseller (includes Platinum, Gold and Silver levels), Authorized Distributors, Certified Implementation Partners, Certified Education Partners and Authorized Referral Partners.
