Zebra Technologies Earns 5-Star Rating in 2023 CRN® Partner Program Guide
Company recognized for its commitment to building strong, profitable and successful channel partnerships
CRN’s annual guide offers essential information to help managed service providers (MSPs), value-added resellers (VARs), systems integrators, and strategic service providers find the technology manufacturers who will best support their business needs. The 5-star rating is awarded to the companies that go above and beyond in nurturing extraordinary channel partnerships.
For the channel partner community, a critical factor to assess which IT manufacturers, service providers, and distributors to team with to build world-class technology solutions is the breadth and depth of the partner programs those companies offer. Strong elements such as financial incentives, sales and marketing assistance, training and certification, technical support and more can set a vendor apart and play a key role in boosting partners’ long-term growth.
In the 2023 CRN Partner Program Guide, vendors were evaluated based on program requirements and offerings such as partner training and education, pre- and post-sales support, marketing programs and resources, technical support, and communication.
“We are honored to receive CRN’s 5-star rating once again for our PartnerConnect program,” said Bill Cate, Vice President of Ecosystems and Product Marketing, Zebra Technologies. “The channel continues to play a strategic role vital to Zebra’s route to market strategy and extending Zebra’s reach to better serve our customers. We remain deeply committed to continuing to make it easy for partners to work with Zebra and differentiate themselves.”
The award-winning Zebra PartnerConnect Program complements its partners’ numerous business models whether they are reselling, distributing, influencing, integrating or developing solutions leveraging Zebra’s broad portfolio of hardware, software and services. The program focuses on opportunity, profitability and simplicity for channel partners and recognizes them with differentiated rewards based on how they uniquely add value to their customers and Zebra’s business.
“In today’s world, the need for innovation is greater than ever,” said Blaine Raddon, CEO of The Channel Company. “Solution providers seek vendors that can keep pace with their developing business and evolving client needs. CRN’s 2023 Partner Program Guide delivers deep insight into the strengths of each program, spotlighting the vendors dedicated to supporting their partner community and pushing positive change throughout the IT channel.”
