Hybrid cloud management platform vendor RackWare has announced that it has promoted Colby Calonica to vice president of global sales, channels and alliances, and has launched the PartnerConnect channel program.
The company said in a release that RackWare PartnerConnect helps IT solutions providers, managed service providers (MSPs) and value-added resellers (VARs) across North America, Europe and the Asia-Pacific region better serve customers and capitalize on the demand for simple, fast and cost-effective cloud migration and disaster recovery solutions, as more enterprises are moving workloads to and between clouds as a strategic business imperative.
“As enterprises continue to look for ways to increase agility and innovate to better serve their customers, cloud migration and disaster recovery have become a business imperative. As a result, our company has seen significantly increased demand, and much of this is coming through the channel,” said Bryan Gobbett, chief executive officer (CEO) at RackWare.
“As we expect this trend to continue, we are launching RackWare PartnerConnect and promoting Colby Calonica to VP of global sales, channels and alliances as a reflection of our commitment to long-term partner growth, innovation and enablement.”
The program offers channel organizations resources, including technical resources and training, sales support, marketing collateral and co-marketing opportunities with increasing incentives, rebates and benefits based on tiers. It offers three tiers: Silver, for entry-level partners; Gold, for intermediate partners; and Platinum, for top-tier partners.
