Acronis unveils details of its new partner program

Acronis has unveiled the details of the new Acronis #CyberFit Partner Program. This update to the company’s existing program places increased emphasis on supporting partner development, particularly for cloud-based services, while rewarding service providers and resellers for their expertise, commitment, and growth with Acronis through performance-based benefits and financial compensation.

Based on feedback from its partners, Acronis provides a partner program that supports forward-thinking go-to-market strategies – enabling partners to earn more while deploying cloud-based solutions that are uniquely suited to meet their clients’ modern protection challenges.

The Acronis #CyberFit Partner Program now includes:
● Financial incentives that increase as partners advance within the program’s levels, including rebates and proposal-based market development funds (MDF).
● Marketing and sales assets, with additional marketing automation tools and renewal tools coming in March 2021.
● Account management assistance that increases with program level, with dedicated marketing support available to Platinum partners.
● Enhanced technical support to enable faster response times.
● Sales and technical training via the Acronis #CyberFit Academy, with courses available both live and online.

Given the breadth of the enhanced #CyberFit Partner Program, industry observers have noted that Acronis is clearly providing the support that many in the IT channel are seeking.

Acronis also revealed that beginning in March, partners will be able to engage with a new Partner Portal, a platform that will make account management and communication with Acronis easier than ever.

Yesterday’s launch will be followed by the 2021 Acronis #CyberFit Partner Kickoff event, held virtually on February 2 at 10 a.m. EST. Attendees will learn more about Acronis’ roadmap for 2021 and what to expect over the course of the year — including additional new tools, licensing models, and training opportunities.

Acronis will also unveil a new licensing format at the event, which is designed to help partners create new opportunities and new revenue streams by expanding their cyber protection services in the coming year.
