Partner Program Overview

For Flexera Software, partnership means working together on joint and shared growth plans, business development and marketing activities to enable both parties to develop and grow a strong business around our solutions, and to provide market leading services and solutions to our customers.

We work with and enable our partners to sell the market-leading InstallShield, InstallAnywhere, and AdminStudio products in the various markets we operate in. Helping them and us to increase revenues and drive incremental revenue is our primary goal.

• Our aim is to provide world-class product and channel support to help grow market share and to assist our partners to share in our success.
• We will work with our partners to create market demand, drive mutual revenue growth and deliver outstanding solutions to our mutual customers that meet and exceed their requirements.
• We acknowledge that we all benefit by working and teaming together.
• We run a channel-neutral approach providing a fair and honest approach to business, lead distribution and opportunity management.
• We recognize that we cannot achieve our own goals and aspirations unless our partners also succeed.
• We recognize that you, the Flexera Software Partner, own the relationship between your business and your customers. Our role is to support and empower our partners to achieve mutual business goals.
• We will develop and maintain clear protocols to ensure that we manage our relationship fairly, openly, to develop trust and to reduce conflict.
• We will continue to expand and develop our network of partners, embracing and teaming with all types and sizes of organizations.

Flexera Software's Partner Accreditation Program

Working with Flexera Software can bring you many rewards and benefits to help you drive and increase your business in our Installation and Application Readiness solutions. As a result we have developed a three tier Partner Accreditation Program open to registered resellers, VAR's and partners working with our solutions. Being an accredited Flexera Software Channel Partner is something to be proud of and our main aim is to help you to see and develop growth with our solutions.

The Flexera Software Partner Accreditation Program reseller track consists of three membership levels with benefits and requirements corresponding to each level. Your membership level is determined by your continuing commitment to Flexera Software solutions.

• Registered — Registered partners are able to sell our market-leading software packaging and deployment solutions while building your Flexera Software solution competencies. This partnership level provides access to a variety of tools and marketing collateral.
• Premier — Premier partners are experienced in selling and delivering Flexera Software products and solutions. Premier partners enjoy enhanced benefits, marketing resources and opportunity registration programs.
• Elite — Elite partners work closely with Flexera Software and have a deep knowledge of the Flexera Software solutions from both a technical and sales perspective. Flexera Software works with Elite partners to create a joint business plan, drive marketing events and pass leads to these partners where appropriate.

Note: The Partner Accreditation Program is not intended for distributors, service providers or integrators at this time.
