Menlo Security Earns 5-Star Rating in 2023 CRN^® Partner Program Guide

Mountain View, CA, March 27, 2023 — Menlo Security, a leader in cloud security, has been recognized by CRN®, a brand of The Channel Company, with a prestigious 5-star rating in its 2023 Partner Program Guide.

This annual guide offers essential information to solution providers such as managed service providers (MSPs), value-added resellers (VARs), systems integrators, and strategic service providers as they explore technology manufacturers’ partner programs to find the vendors that will best support their business needs. The 5-star rating is awarded to the companies that go above and beyond in their commitment to nurturing strong, profitable, successful channel partnerships.

For the channel partner community, a critical factor when assessing which IT manufacturers, service providers, and distributors to team with in building world-class technology solutions is the breadth and depth of the partner programs those companies offer. Strong elements such as financial incentives, sales and marketing assistance, training and certification, technical support and more can set a vendor apart and play a key role in boosting partners’ long-term growth.

In the 2023 CRN Partner Program Guide, vendors were evaluated based on program requirements and offerings such as partner training and education, pre- and post-sales support, marketing programs and resources, technical support, and communication.

As part of its commitment to empowering partners to achieve success, Menlo Security has added additional margin, ongoing training, more content and comprehensive Go-To-Market plans. In addition, the Boost Partner Program has been enhanced to increase the profitability and efficiency of our global network. The company has added several new options, including:

• Specialized reseller and distributor tools for on-boarding new customers and provisioning new end-users. Including a new Learning Management portal with more content
• Robust sales and marketing training
• Dedicated sales and pre-sales support
• New partner tiers where everyone benefits along with unmatched margins

“We are honored that CRN has recognized our Boost Partner Program as a 5-Star one. Our partners are an invaluable part of our company. They enable us to expand globally and grow our business,” said Todd Wilson, vice president, Global Channels, Menlo Security. “Last year 25% of our partners made our top tier status. Our goal this year is to be over 35%. This is going to provide more benefits and margin to our partners driving additional new revenue sources they have not taken advantage of before.”

Menlo Security is committed to preventing threats before they happen. With 75% of today’s work being done in the browser, the attack surface and end point are growing. In fact, Menlo Security has identified a class of Highly Evasive Adaptive Threats (HEAT) specifically designed to evade detection by multiple layers in the current security stack including firewalls, Secure Web Gateways, sandboxing, URL Reputation, and phishing detection.

“In today’s world, the need for innovation is greater than ever,” said Blaine Raddon, CEO of The Channel Company. “Solution providers seek vendors that can keep pace with their developing business and evolving client needs. CRN’s 2023 Partner Program Guide delivers deep insight into the strengths of each program, spotlighting the vendors dedicated to supporting their partner community and pushing positive change throughout the IT channel.

The 2023 Partner Program Guide will be featured in the April 2023 issue of CRN and online at www.CRN.com/PPG.
