GFI expands its reseller partner program

February 06, 2003 - 12:00

Multi-tiered system introduced to reward successful GFI reseller partners

GFI, leading developer of messaging, network security and content security software, has restructured its reseller partner program. The changes, introduced as result of GFI's rapid growth over recent years, include different tiers of partnership and new sets of benefits per level. While motivating all members, the revamped reseller program offers greater rewards to high-flying partners.

The GFI advantage
As GFI partners, resellers can reap the fruits of GFI's experience, expertise and reputation in the fields of messaging and security. GFI's reseller program has been successful to date because GFI products are easy to sell: they are competitively priced, they include greater feature sets, and they are well known - over 500,000 network administrators worldwide use GFI products. Because GFI does not sell any services, resellers can make additional revenue over their margin on product sales from the installation and administration/maintenance of GFI software. An added advantage is that GFI's comprehensive range of products eliminates the need for resellers to establish relationships with many vendors to source different security or messaging products.

The partnership options available
GFI's reseller program now offers various partnership options and corresponding benefits based on reseller commitment and achievements:

  • Reseller Bronze - This is the entry-level program; a prospective reseller is accepted as a Reseller Bronze once he/she has evaluated GFI's software.
  • Reseller Silver - For resellers who sell GFI products on a regular basis.
  • Reseller Gold - For resellers who actively sell and promote GFI software.
  • Distributor Silver - For distributors who sell GFI products to their resellers on a regular basis.
  • Distributor Gold - For distributors who actively sell and promote GFI software to their resellers.
