Netgear Enhances PowerShift Partner Program

Netgear Inc. announced new enhancements to its Netgear PowerShift Program, which assists partners in selling the ProSafe Business Networking product line.

“The improvements to our program are based on the collective feedback from our partners as well as an understanding of what is occurring across the competitive landscape,” says John Grady, senior director of product marketing, SMB Products, Netgear.

The number of levels in the program has increased from two (Gold and Platinum) to four (Basic, Gold, Platinum, and Platinum Plus). There are also government/education discounts, a deal registration program, instant rebates through tier-one distributors, and 24/7 U.S.-based device-level technical support. Improvements to the risk-free product evaluation program, access to the Power- Shift partner portal, and Netgear University Training are additional enhancements to the PowerShift partner program.

The new offerings are available through more frequent webinars that feature live seminars, training sessions, product launches, demonstrations, and briefings.
