ClearDATA Expands Partner Program, Appoints New Channel Sales Director
Excel Partner Program to enhance partners' competitive advantage and speed to market
PHOENIX, Oct. 6, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- ClearDATA today launched the next evolution of its reseller and referral program. The new program, Excel Partner Program, is designed to enhance the scope and speed to market of system integrators, VARs, IT consultants and ISVs (independent software vendors) dedicated to supporting healthcare providers, payers and life sciences organizations.
To further expand and scale its partner network, ClearDATA has appointed industry veteran John Perales as its new Channel Sales Director. Perales has a proven track record of successfully growing and overseeing channel sales at Rackspace and other cloud providers. At ClearDATA he is responsible for developing the strategic direction that will accelerate the adoption of secure, HIPAA-compliant cloud computing within the healthcare partner industry.
"ClearDATA's exclusive focus on healthcare combined with the proven security, regulatory compliance, and performance of our managed cloud platform, is ideal for software and technology companies seeking a competitive advantage in the healthcare space," said Perales. "Partners benefit from excellent commissions, robust sales and marketing support, and our successful track record of providing industry-leading reliability and support to their customers."
Respected industry analyst firm Frost & Sullivan recognized ClearDATA with its North American Healthcare Cloud Leadership Award in 2014. "ClearDATA's key value proposition lies in their pure healthcare-oriented solutions with meaningful ROI and cost reduction," noted Frost & Sullivan Program Director Eramangalath Sujith. "By committing to the standards of 100 percent redundancy, 100 percent network and power uptime, 100 percent assurance of IT business continuity, and 99.999 percent server uptime at a lower cost than on premise solutions, the company has steadily taken a market leading position."
Excel Partner Program
ClearDATA's Excel Partner Program is a tiered program that benefits resellers and referral partners in various ways:
- Lucrative referral/reseller model using a compensation model based on annual performance. Partners will have the opportunity to maximize their earnings and increase their margins in the healthcare cloud space which ClearDATA projects will see adoption rates of 50% in the next four to five years, representing approximately $6.5 billion of a $13 billion market for multi-cloud computing and managed services.
- Robust sales and marketing support through a partner portal where partners can easily access sales enablement tools and develop co-branded marketing collateral. ClearDATA will also regularly offer educational webinars such as "5 Ways Technology Vendors Put Their Healthcare Customers' PHI at Risk."
