VeloCloud has earned the 5-Star rating in CRN's 2017 Partner Program Guide. This annual guide is the definitive listing of partner programs from technology vendors that provide products and services through the IT channel. (Graphic: Business Wire) The 5-Star Partner Program Guide rating recognizes an elite subset of companies that offer solution providers the best partnering elements in their channel programs. VeloCloud's automation, true multi-tenant cloud based orchestration, control, and zero touch-deployment dramatically lower the barrier for channel partners to deploy, support and profit from Cloud-Delivered SD-WAN. To determine the 2017 5-Star ratings, The Channel Company's research team assessed each vendor's partner program based on investments in program offerings, partner profitability, partner training, education and support, marketing programs and esources, sales support and communication. The 2017 Partner Program Guide is featured in this month's issue of CRN and online at www.CRN.com/ppg. "For solution providers, finding the right technology vendors to partner with is crucial to the health of their business, and the vast array of choices can be overwhelming," said Robert Faletra, CEO of The Channel Company.
