The wins keep coming for the Dell Partner Program! Today, ChannelProNetwork announced the winners of its 2017 ChannelPro Readers’ Choice Awards. Dell has been honored with seven awards, receiving top marks in servers, storage, desktop hardware and private cloud computing technology. See our full list of accolades – four Gold, two Silver and one Bronze – detailed below:
- Best Server Hardware – Gold
- Best Desktop Hardware – Gold
- Best Private Cloud Computing – Gold
- Best Storage Hardware – Gold
- Best Laptop/Ultrabook – Silver
- Best Vendor Partner Program – Silver
- Best Hybrid/Convertible PC – Bronze
These awards are especially meaningful because winners were chosen by ChannelPro readers, who cast their votes for the vendors with the most SMB and partner-friendly products, technologies and solutions. The recently launched Dell Partner Program is similarly based on partner feedback, with the focus being on delivering a simple, predictable and profitable partner program. Selecting Dell as the vendor that best satisfies the unique business requirements, work styles and budgets of SMB clients, as well as those that best serve their own partner organizations, demonstrates the early success of the newly rolled out program.
In addition to the honors from ChannelPro readers, the Dell Partner Program has enjoyed high marks from partners since its roll-out in February. Globally, the Dell channel continues to show extraordinary market growth with total global partner revenue growth up double digits in our first quarter. Under the new program, partners can increase their profitability with the opportunity to earn 1.5X to 8X more than they did with the previous program.
We are thrilled by the early success partners are experiencing as they implement the new program and sell the portfolio. We are honored by today’s recognition from ChannelPro and look forward to continuing our investment in the partner community.
