Partner Program
Perhaps the most imposing barrier to deploying open source solutions is the concern that support and ongoing management will be more costly than the savings from reduced license fees. AlienVault has responded to this concern in a number of ways including comprehensive support, training and certification, version maintenance and updates, documentation, and of course a superior product. Above all else, however, we rely on our community of integrators, developers, consultants and managed service providers to ensure the successful deployment of the AlienVault SIEM in organizations across the world.
To this end, we have created a program that extends the services mentioned above to each of these AlienVault Partners according to their needs. AlienVault partners have a privileged position in the rapidly growing community of OSSIM users, as they protagonize new and innovative implementations of the solution, share new plug-ins with the community and develop a reputation among the thousands of users as experts in management and monitoring of logs and security events.
The AlienVault partner program is built on four pillars: Training, Sales, Technical Support and Marketing, and provides many benefits and tools to certified partners.
- Limited, certified channel
Only official partners may rely on direct access to support from AlienVault, provide certified training, and 2nd line AlienVault support to their clients.
- Web visibility
Official partners will be recognized on the AlienVault website, as will their contributions to the community.
- Ample sales margins
AlienVault provides official partners with extremely aggressive discounts on the commercial open source solutions.
- Lead generation and opportunity protection
Thousands of downloads each month are quickly converted into leads and passed on to our official partners. The leads are then registered for account protection and follow-up.
- Certified services
Many users rely on official AlienVault partners for their managed services, 24/7 monitoring and support. AlienVault certifies and recognizes these services.
- Access to marketing materials and MDF (Market Development Funds)
Please talk to your AlienVault channel representative to plan open source security and SIEM events and activities in your area.
- Sales and technical training
Clear communication with the end user is fundamental to successful SIEM deployments, beginning with setting realistic goals and expectations, and all the way through training, documentation and knowledge transfer regarding the specific implementation. AlienVault prepares partner sales and technical staff to communicate the values of open source SIEM solutions.
- Pre– and post sales support
AlienVault provides official partners with first line pre- and post sales technical support services so that they can customize their own technical support services to suit clients' needs. AlienVault also provides sales overlay services.
- Access to all resources from the creators of OSSIM
Finally, official partners have privileged access to internal technical resources.
