Partnerships evolved with Schneider Electric’s Partner Portal for IT

November 2018 News

Schneider Electric South Africa has revamped its online portal for IT Channel Partners to enhance support, enablement and overall experience with a focus on providing more efficient and intuitive access to incentives, training and support, product information, tools, and more.

The Partner Portal for IT Channel Partners features a variety of online support tools and access to numerous training guides and practical solutions. It also serves as a network, which provides access to information on the latest data centre infrastructure products and solutions.

“Through this portal we aim to make it easier for our partners to engage with us, offering them an opportunity to achieve their business goals, while increasing the benefits, privileges, and profit opportunities available to them at each stage in the programme,” says Chetan Mistry, channel development manager, Schneider Electric ITD Anglophone Africa.

The easy-to-use platform includes essential training to maintain partner certification levels, marketing collateral and sales tools, as well as opportunity registration, lead generation, networking opportunities, free training and a rewards programme. The portal also enables the partner’s sales teams with access to iSEL, a module that provides sales support material including brochures and technical sheets. The iMarket module provides teams with access to ready-to-deploy marketing campaigns, enabling them to build demand within the end-user base.

To save time, partners can now gain access to a design tool to help with integrated solutions when it comes to scalable power and cooling, racks, power distribution and innovative monitoring and management software that act as one system for a total IT infrastructure and monitoring solution.

“Schneider Electric is a channel-focused organisation, where we place great value on the mutually beneficial relationship we have with our partners,” concludes Mistry. The portal provides our partners with everything they need to achieve their financial goals as they are instantly connected to a global leader in the ever-changing IT world, allowing them to be in control of their growth along with the technology shifts.”
