N-able Technologies Earns 5-Star Designation in 2011 Partner Programs Guide

Managed Services Innovator Named to CRN's Annual Partner Programs Guide for Seventh Consecutive Year

N-able Technologies®, the global leader in remote network and systems management (NSM) software for managed service providers (MSPs) and IT departments, today announced it has been named to CRN's 2011 Partner Programs Guide for the seventh consecutive year. CRN also recognized N-able with a 5-Star Partner rating for its channel partner program and enablement resources.

CRN's Partner Programs Guide and 5-Star Partner ratings serve as the definitive list of vendors that have robust partner programs or products that service solution providers offer directly to the IT channel. The annual list recognizes those vendors who equip solution providers with the best possible partnering elements for channel success.

In 2010, N-able's partners thrived as the company increased adoption of its N-central® NSM platform by 70 percent across the global marketplace, according to Gavin Garbutt, CEO of N-able Technologies.

"The powerful combination of our 100 percent IT coverage model and proven partner enablement program has been a catalyst in our ability to incrementally increase sales across our existing MSP partner base and attract new prospects at the same time," says Garbutt. "Throughout the past year, our sales and partner development teams have helped hundreds of N-able MSP partners successfully manage 100 percent of their customers' IT infrastructure using this proven, no risk methodology that introduces managed IT services one technology service at a time."

Garbutt adds, "We take great pride in this achievement and thank our partners for their continued commitment to N-able. We strive to give MSPs all the tools, resources and supported needed to deliver value-added services, attract new business and build recurring revenue streams and profits. The 5-Star rating means that, once again, we are helping our MSP partners to meet and surpass their business goals."

According to Kelley Damore, VP and Editorial Director for Everything Channel's CRN, "The companies listed in the 2011 Partner Programs Guide represent the best channel programs in the market today. Of those, only a few get our five-star award, based on their commitment to the channel, breadth of program offerings and services offered to their partners. Each of these organizations understands that technology alone does not make for a successful channel program. By focusing on delivering a comprehensive partner program, vendors and solution providers can work together to drive business opportunities and revenue."

The 2011 Partner Programs Guide and 5-Star Partners listing is featured on CRN.com and in the March 28 issue of CRN.
