Acronis has released fresh information about its Acronis #CyberFit Partner Program. The company’s existing programme has been updated to place a greater emphasis on supporting partner development, particularly for cloud-based services, as well as increasing their marketing and social media visibility with pre-packaged automated content and providing competitive professional and financial assistance to partners willing to migrate to Acronis.
“With these new updates, we are helping to lead the cybersecurity industry with and for our partners,” says Acronis Channel Chief, Alex Ruslyakov.
He added, “We pride ourselves on the strong relationships we have with our partners, and are always looking for ways to make them more successful, which in turn leads to our success. We understand the various roadblocks experienced on cloud transformation journeys and strive to continuously update and improve our program and deliver outstanding benefits and tools to facilitate partner’s growth and decrease operational costs, delivering them to the front of innovation and leading the industry to new fertile ground.”
From North America, Michael Slater, Head of Sales – Channel Marketplace at Sherweb, shared, “We are excited to see the new updates to the Acronis Partner Program. This program incentivizes a stronger partnership between Sherweb and Acronis, and we look forward to continuing to learn about trends in cyber protection with the Acronis team.”
In the UK, Josh Greenberg, Vendor Business Manager at IntY, said, “We’ve always been able to count on Acronis to understand our company needs. Acronis has continued to meet us and assist us in the best way possible, made evident by the update to their Partner Program,” he said. “This program incentivizes a stronger partnership that leaves us safer and more protected from cybercrimes in today’s evolving threat landscape.”
“This new Acronis Partner Program makes it easier than ever to reach a broader audience with their marketing automation tools and Partner Portal,” said Verónica Flores, Cloud Sales & Marketing Director at OnCloud – Súbete a la Nube.
“With the financial rewards and incentives for high loyalty and Acronis’ superior cyber protection, we feel safer and more financially secure than ever before, ready to take on the future and expand our company with the comfort of knowing Acronis has our back and is continuously evolving their program as the landscape of technology is constantly shifting,” added Verónica Flores.
With over 20,000 partners using Acronis Cyber Protect and a recent $250 million round of funding from CVC Capital Partners VII and others, Acronis’ cloud ecosystem has more than doubled since 2018, with 2021 proving to be the most significant year in Acronis history. Acronis has updated its partner programme annually based on feedback from its partners, allowing partners to earn more while deploying cloud-based solutions that are uniquely suited to meet their clients’ modern protection challenges and marketing needs, as well as offering a competitive migration programme for those looking to switch to Acronis.
Last year, the partner program was reimagined as a unified program for service providers and resellers. New additions for 2022 include:
Existing Acronis partners are already praising the revamped programme, praising its ease of use as well as the new features meant to increase overall market awareness.
On February 2, 2022, Acronis will organise a 2022 Acronis #CyberFit Partner Kickoff event to engage with partners and distributors and communicate Acronis’ partner-centric approach and 2022 ambitions. This includes seeing the latest Acronis Partner Portal upgrades, getting a sneak peek at the 2022 roadmap, learning about the Acronis #TeamUp initiative, and much more.
