When it comes to selling cloud-based solutions for total data and application uptime, Axcient provides everything that Managed Service Providers (MSPs) and Value-Added Resellers (VARs) need to succeed. And the new Axcient Partner Program will offer even more robust selling and marketing tools with powerful incentives for the channel. As the program is fully rolled out in 2012, its three membership tiers – Partner, Premier Partner, and Elite Partner – will reward partners at every level. As partners move from one tier to the next, their rewards and access to benefits increase, based on their new status within the program. As a 100% channel-focused company, Axcient is committed to supporting partners from the time they sign on through full maturity.

"At Axcient, it is our continued objective to not only provide the best backup and recovery service to our partners, but also to provide the industry's best channel program so our partners can easily respond to ever-changing customer needs," said Justin Moore, CEO of Axcient. "Axcient has received widespread recognition for our channel-friendly programs and we are always looking to make them even better. Our goal is to be more than a partner – our goal is to be a committed member of our partners' organizations."

Axcient's partner and customer-first priority is clear in the major investments made toward innovative solutions and a channel program that makes Axcient simple and highly profitable to sell. Axcient has been honored with more than a dozen industry awards, including ConnectWise IT Nation's Most Compelling Channel Program 2011, the HP AllianceONE Partner of the Year 2011, and Business Solutions' Best Channel Vendor 2011 and 2012.
