AvePoint, an advanced SaaS and data management platform provider, revealed enhancements to its global partner program, which is designed to equip partners including managed service providers (MSPs), value-added resellers (VARs), cloud consultants and DevOps partners, with the right technology and tools to capitalize on collaboration security revenue opportunities.
It also aligns benefits and resources to various partner business models and technology delivery preferences and has been serving partners since its official launch in July 2021.
By the end of 2021, AvePoint had more than 2,800 total partners, of which, over three quarters were active MSPs. In addition, AvePoint experienced triple-digit growth in monthly recurring revenue from the AvePoint Elements Managed Services Platform.
As part of its commitment to building the channel business and to evolving its partner program to meet the needs of an evolving partner ecosystem, AvePoint has introduced:
- AvePoint Certification Program – In addition to its training and enablement, and 24/7 live support, AvePoint is introducing a partner certification program for partner engineers, pre-sales teams and product specialists. It includes technical and sales tracks to help partners understand how to administer secure collaboration environments and enable them to design custom cloud solutions.
- Partner Technical Advisory Council – AvePoint formed a Partner Technical Advisory Council (PTAC) comprised of strategic Invested partners from around the globe. Obtaining crowd-sourced “voice of partner” information is a key component of the R&D process and helps AvePoint understand the needs of today’s modern partner and technology buyer.
- Elements Managed Services Platform Advancements – Since launching the global partner program, AvePoint has ensured all updates to its enterprise-grade technology are available for partners via the Elements MSP portal.
- Renewals Visibility and Automation for Partners – New functionality within the AvePoint partner portal helps partners swiftly manage renewals and the lifecycle of their subscriptions.
Partners can use the AvePoint Elements Managed Services Platform, which includes its digital collaboration security technologies like access monitoring and control, backup and disaster recovery, provisioning and management, and secure migration technology. The consolidated platform helps partners reduce the number of vendors they work with, which, as discovered in the annual AvePoint Global MSP Preferences Survey, is a pain point among 60% of partners.
