We are committed to providing partners with a best in class Solution Provider Partner Program. Our award-winning program provides extensive resources, training and support to help partners differentiate their business and increase profitability with our industry-leading virtualization and cloud solutions.
As part of the strategic shift in our incentive program to reward partners who drive demand for our more complex solutions, we have implemented adjustments to the Solution Provider program renewal and progression fees. These fees became effective August 1, 2016.
The chart below outlines the new fee structure. (Note: all partners have the ability to renew up to 45 days following their renewal date.)
Bear in mind that this adjustment will enable VMware to provide:
Superior support with critical, partner-facing business activities
Amplified benefits for Enterprise and Premier partners (details on Partner Central)
Advanced training opportunities for Partners to gain greater technology expertise
These changes reflect our growing portfolio and provides partners with the infrastructure needed to maximize their investment with VMware.
