SonicWall strengthens its Partners with new capabilities

To confer the best partners in India and SAARC region, SonicWall organized an event in Colombo, Sri Lanka. The main aim of the event was to honour the best partners for their efforts. It was attended by Top 40 partners. In the event, the company has also announced the new Capture Cloud Platform capabilities which include Zero-Touch Deployment and Secure SD- WAN designed for distributed enterprises and organizations with hybrid cloud environments

A strong vendor-partner relation is the key to success for both the parties. The stronger the relationship, the better achievements they achieve together. For SonicWall, partners play a major role, and the company is working very closely with its Secure First partners. It helps to educate its partners on how to better address the ever-evolving security challenges and become a trusted advisor.      

Debashish Mukherjee, Country Director India & SAARC, SonicWall, says, “Every partner is unique in their own way and they are addressing customer requirements and servicing their customers with the help of technologies available in the market. At SonicWall, we are working closely with our Secure First partners and educating them on addressing dynamic security challenges and becoming coming trusted advisors.

We all know in the security industry one of the major challenges is to fulfil the skills and knowledge gap. SonicWall as a responsible security solution provider has taken this initiative ahead of time and introduced SonicWall University, a web-based portal where partners both pre-sales and post-sales can learn and certify themselves to become a cybersecurity expert. This training process is mix of web-based, classroom and finally stringent online tests to become accredited or certified depending on the level of coursework they choose to undertake.

SonicWall certified engineers can work closely with customers and help them to make right decision on implementing technologies which are relevant for their organization and requirements. Eventually, this will be a committed relationship between partners and customers rather than a one-time transaction deal.”

“Overall, the SonicWall partner event in Colombo was good, informative and very useful. In addition, the hospitality of the company in taking care of the partners was awesome.

We are predominantly security partners and SonicWall plays the vital role in our security business in addressing the customer’s pain points, now with the new feature launch it can serve much better.”

“Security is very important for every organization today and hence it becomes a priority for us, too. We see a lot of growth in security for distributed environments and security for email deployments in the industry.

While we have been associated with SonicWall for more than a decade, it’s just the right time for partnership with them with the new and enhanced product solution portfolio which is very relevant and effective for all sizes and verticals of customers.”
