Local partners celebrated for ongoing commitment to Nutanix as company drives partner autonomy message to the channel.
Nutanix, a leader in hybrid multicloud computing, celebrated its partners at the recent .NEXT on Tour event held in Johannesburg South Africa. Partners were recognised for their commitment, leadership and sales excellence, as well as their innovation in serving customers across the region.
“At Nutanix we are focused on enabling partner autonomy, something we managed to deliver well on with our Elevate Partner Program, where we directed efforts on helping partners with sales, technical and services certifications, and building partner competencies on Nutanix solutions,” said Gerhard Fourie, Channel Sales Manager, SSA and IOI at Nutanix.
“The next evolution of our journey towards partner autonomy is to ensure that our partners can see and deliver on the value in building businesses that lead with Nutanix. These awards are testimony to the fact that when you provide partners with the necessary tools, resources, and insights to successfully drive deals throughout the buying journey, they will succeed.”
A 100% partner-led organisation, the Nutanix partner ecosystem in Sub-Saharan Africa continues to grow, as the company provides partners in the region with a Customer Lifetime Value for Nutanix promise. This is central to its subscription-led model.
