Netwrix Announces New Unified Partner Program

Netwrix | March 28, 2022

Netwrix, a cybersecurity vendor that makes data security easy, launched a new partner portal offering seamless integration of its acquired entities into the Netwrix channel environment. Nine products join Netwrix Auditor and Netwrix Data Classification, enabling partners to grow their businesses with Netwrix and earn up to 30% margin for each registered deal.

"In 2021, we successfully integrated more than 300 channel partners from Stealthbits, NNT, PolicyPak and Anixis," says Melissa Schmulson, Vice President of North America Channel at Netwrix. "We have unified our onboarding, training and certification programs to highlight cross-sell opportunities and help our partners take full advantage of the joint Netwrix product portfolio."

To help partners quickly grow their businesses with its expanding portfolio, Netwrix implemented the following:
  • 3-step onboarding program: Partners simply enroll in the Netwrix Channel environment, fill their pipeline using joint marketing activities and sales tools, and register deals on the Partner Portal.
  • Unified deal registration process: Partners can register deals for all 11 products using the same portal.
  • 161 sales and marketing tools: The Partner Portal offers sales cheat sheets and battlecards, marketing videos, marketing campaigns-in-a-box, and more.
  • Consolidated training and certification program: Partners can earn sales, presales engineering and professional services certifications and participate in dedicated online sessions with Netwrix subject matter experts at least twice per quarter.

"Having a unified partner agreement that streamlines margins for all Netwrix products has made doing business across their multiple lines of business so much easier for our teams," says Will McIntyre, Senior Manager – Strategic Software – Security at SHI. "In addition, having one partner portal to go to in order to register opportunities for any product and to access training and marketing materials is something that we find great value in. As a Netwrix and Stealthbits partner, now being able to access just one portal that also includes other lines of business such as NNT and PolicyPak truly simplifies the process."

  • Netwrix Auditor
  • Netwrix Data Classification

UserTesting Launches New Certified Agency Partner Program

Business Wire | July 24, 2023

UserTesting, a leader in experience research and insights, today announced the launch of its new certified partner program for digital agencies. The program is designed to provide agencies with the training, resources, and technology to build and/or enhance their UX research and design offerings–providing a more scalable and efficient way to bring customer sentiment into the process for how they design, create, and deploy new products and experiences for their clients. The UserTesting platform also includes workspaces to make the management of tests, templates, videos, and insights across multiple client accounts simple and accessible. Digital product and marketing leaders are turning to digital agencies to support their growing digital business initiatives and to develop and execute effective marketing strategies. According to Gartner’s Market Guide for Global Digital Marketing Agencies 2022, agency searches have soared by over 50 percent in the past year, driven by budget pressure, significant business model changes, hiring challenges, and a desire for more new capabilities and innovative thinking. With the growing demand for agencies to support companies' digital business growth initiatives, agencies need to be able to move quickly, test and validate experiences frequently, and make customer-informed decisions and recommendations in a compressed time frame. With UserTesting, agencies can reduce the amount of rework and revisions within a client project, and ensure they are meeting their operating margin goals. According to CISQ1, companies are spending 30-35 percent of all project time on rework, with a substantial cost of $2.41 trillion annually. "UserTesting has been instrumental in our ability to scale our experience research and strategy practice–empowering us to work faster, more accurately, and with access to a broader set of participants for more diverse perspectives,” said Gillian Salerno-Rebic, Manager, Experience Strategy at Accenture. “Our ability to test, validate, and understand customer sentiment and behavior more systematically enables us to change, challenge, and transform client strategies more effectively.” UserTesting’s certified agency program provides a foundation for experience research maturity and scaling, including training, playbooks, and ongoing education and support–to ensure agencies are successful in systematically embedding human insights into their client engagement strategies–from concept to execution. “At Openbox, we have been transforming digital experiences for some of the top Financial Services organizations for many years and through our customer first method, we've always ensured the voice of the customer is front and center in our design, build, and testing,” said Laura Rae, Co-Founder of Openbox. “The UserTesting platform has become fundamental in scaling our UX Research operations as our digital transformation consultancy continues to grow. The platform ensures that customer insight and empathy is at the core of every digital experience for a customer when they're dealing with such an important part of their lives, their finances.” With more than a dozen certified agency partners, including Accenture, MRM, and Openbox, UserTesting has become the trusted partner for digital agencies looking to build and scale their experience research and design practice. “We are thrilled to launch this new program and help digital agencies unlock the full potential of experience research and insights across their portfolio of work,” said Rob Vandenberg, VP, Channels and Alliances at UserTesting. “By partnering with UserTesting, agencies can provide their clients with a deeper understanding of their users to more effectively validate concepts, test prototypes, and build products–leading to improved digital experiences, increased customer loyalty, and better business outcomes.” To learn more about the Certified Agency Partner Program, visit our agency page here. About UserTesting UserTesting is fundamentally changing the way digital products and experiences are built and delivered by helping organizations get insights from customers–from concept to execution. Built on top of a world-class, on-demand sourcing engine, customers can receive fast, high quality, opt-in feedback from both our proprietary and partner-sourced audience networks around the world. UserTesting offers the industry's most comprehensive experience research solution. Unlike approaches that track user behavior or collect customer listening data on live experiences, then try to infer what that data means, UserTesting enables companies to get input directly from customers–earlier in the process–helping to reduce guesswork, and bringing experience data to life with human insight. The company, formed through the combination of UserTesting & UserZoom, has more than 3,400 customers worldwide, including 75 of the Fortune 100 companies. To learn more, visit www.usertesting.com.
