MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif.,
Jan. 18, 2022 /PRNewswire/
-- Pure Storage (NYSE: PSTG), the IT pioneer that delivers
storage as-a-service in a multi-cloud world, today announced a
series of new updates and benefits for its robust Partner Program.
These enhancements reflect the ways in which Pure's services-led
strategy and portfolio is enabling new levels of flexibility,
agility, transparency, and simplicity for partners.
Pure has been 100% channel led since its founding, and providing
a world class Partner Program is critical to its success. To
deliver continuous improvements to the Program, Pure aligns partner
feedback, customer needs, and its company strategy to advance its
Program in ways that help partners drive faster, smarter, and more
innovative business.
"As the only storage vendor delivering subscriptions fully
through the channel, our partners are essential to achieving our
mission of meeting global business and technology needs, which is
why the modernization of our Partner Program is moving in lockstep
with Pure's evolution as a services-led company. We're proud to set
the bar for partner programs, delivering unmatched simplicity,
flexibility, and value to our partners so we can continue growing
together." – Wendy Stusrud, VP of
Global Partner Sales, Pure Storage
The latest updates to the Partner Program include the capacity
for partners to participate in one-to-many routes to market,
differentiated benefits based on tier, and more:
- Power to sell the portfolio in the way that best aligns with
partners' unique business and customer needs: Pure's Partner
Program now provides specific requirements and benefits for
partners whether they are reselling or offering managed services,
as-a-service solutions, or cloud native architecture. Since Pure
has seamlessly integrated Portworx offerings into its 100% channel
model, this flexibility in routes to market also applies to cloud
native and Kubernetes-based applications in an increasingly
container-driven world.
- Profitable, predictable, and tiered rewards for capability
and solution specialization: Pure is introducing new,
differentiated benefits for Elite partners who have invested in
partnering with Pure, including incentives, discounts, marketing
resources, and more.
- Expanded programs to support service specialization and
distribution partners: New Services Specialization Program
enables partner-branded professional and support services around
Pure technology. Pure has also introduced a formal program
to support Pure distribution partners.
- More simple than ever: These changes also include a
simplification of the requirements by aligning to solutions,
further enabling partners to invest in multiple routers-to-market
enablement. Additionally, the Pure Partner Program will now adhere
to Pure's fiscal year, beginning February 7,
2022.
"Our business with Pure Storage continues to grow, and these new
features of the Pure Partner Program mean we can be even more
successful together." – Greg Berard,
President, North America, Converge
Technology Solutions Corp.
