AppDynamics Strengthens Partner Program with Profit Sharing

AppDynamics announced a strengthened and enhanced partner program introducing first-of-its-kind profit sharing levels for solution partners.

The new program is designed to enable solution partners to make more revenue from their engagement with AppDynamics as value-added solution providers.

Most attractive to new and existing solution providers is the unprecedented profit sharing potential associated with every AppDynamics customer deal. The enhanced compensation structure provides solution partners with the margin off of the net price to the customer. This structure is quite unique and thought to be the first of its kind in the APM industry. Partners are critical to the overall success of AppDynamics as the APM industry continues to grow at a rapid pace.

“AppDynamics is committed to developing and maintaining world-class partner programs designed to deliver maximum benefits to our ecosystem of solution, IT services and technology partners,” said Joe Sexton, president of worldwide field operations at AppDynamics. “Teaming up with companies that are at the epicenter of a rapidly expanding ecosystem for developing and maintaining today’s complex, highly distributed applications is an important focus at AppDynamics.” In addition to the new compensation structure, the program includes collaboration and support on joint sales opportunities allowing solution partners to ensure they have the right engagement around an opportunity; along with easy-to-consume training materials so partners can quickly enable staff to deliver valuable advisory and integration services.

New solution providers recently joining the AppDynamics Partner Program include: AHEAD, Applied Computer Solutions, Continuum Security Solutions, FusionStorm, Lumenate, Maryville Technologies, ShadowSoft, Trace3 and Vizuri.
