Vertiv, a global provider of critical digital infrastructure and continuity solutions, has announced key additions to its award-winning Vertiv™ Partner Programme along with an enhanced suite of edge-ready products including rack power distribution units, uninterruptible power supplies, rack cooling systems, dedicated software and services for partners and customers in Europe, the Middle East and Africa.
Following the successful launch of the VPP last year, Vertiv has seen a 10-fold increase in its channel partner base across EMEA and is continuing to add benefits for new and existing partners.
The brand-new partner relationship management system and the enhanced partner portal will enable Vertiv partners to take immediate advantage of tailored training to match partner requirements; new sales and marketing tools; online training and certification; and product selectors and configurations.
The new suite of tools has been designed to help partners develop key skills and knowledge and achieve greater differentiation and profitability along with increased business opportunities.
Loot.co.za said: “Our Vertiv partnership has always been smooth and easy. Vertiv are one of our key partners in providing critical power systems to our South African customers; they are constantly improving and innovating, this goes hand in hand with Loot’s goals to always put our customer’s needs first.”
The new suite of products further enhances Vertiv’s comprehensive portfolio of IT technologies and services, tying these into a complete and flexible single-source rack-based solution.
From July 2020, an enhanced programme known as VIP+ is expected to bring even more benefits to resellers through the silver, gold and platinum level of membership, including lower entry barriers, additional incentives upon registering, and higher returns on certain packages.
The additions to the scheme will enable more partners to take advantage of the programme while developing key skills and knowledge at their own pace.
Murtaza Loka, Finance and Purchasing Head at BurhanTec, said: “Working in partnership with Vertiv was already a no brainer due to their world class market position and a global end-to-end product set.
“This has been enhanced significantly by the Vertiv Partner Programme with a range of benefits which has allowed us to take even greater advantage of what Vertiv can offer.”
