Avecto Ltd, the leader in Windows privilege
management, today announced the launch of their new Channel
Program. Additionally, Avecto announced the appointment of two
industry veterans to lead this initiative - Rashied Akrum has been
appointed Director of European Business Development and Carina
Rozendaal has been appointed Director of European Channels. Both
Akrum and Rozendaal bring a tremendous amount of experience to
Avecto, with an extensive track record of developing profitable and
sustainable partner channels for leading vendors such as Citrix,
Softricity and Microsoft.
The Avecto Channel Program is available to distributors and
resellers in mainland Europe and has been designed with the needs
of today's channel partners in mind, consisting of three levels of
membership: Registered, Consulting and Privileged Partners.
In the market for least privilege management solutions, the
unique ability to elevate Windows applications on demand, and
manage user privileges centrally, has enabled tremendous growth for
Avecto over last year. "Partly because of the Microsoft Windows 7
adoption, VDI interest and tighter security and compliance
regulations, we see a growing demand for secure, compliant desktops
that operate under the least privilege model. A skilled network of
partners will enable Avecto to scale and meet the implementation
and support demands of enterprise customers." says Paul Kenyon, VP
of Sales and Operations.
For distributors and partners the benefits include competitive
margins, licensing programs, joint marketing, lead campaigns and
comprehensive sales and technical support. "Partners are always in
search for a competitive advantage and new innovative products, to
build their business to the profitable next level. We believe that
the Avecto Privilege Guard solution, combined with the attractive
partner benefits in the program, will bring the essential value-add
needed for a low risk/high return to partners who are focused in
the security and desktop market." says Rashied Akrum, Director of
European Business Development.
