Associate Partner

As an Associate Partner, you can increase the value-added services you recommend to customers and deepen customer relationships.

Associate Partners benefit from partnering with a recognized leader in availability services and recommend Sungard Availability Services to their customers, earning commissions when the sale closes. Our sales team works side-by-side with you, enabling you to further grow customer relationships while we deliver the services. The Associate Partner track is ideal for companies that want to expand into the cloud services and business continuity market to meet customer IT service needs, but may not want to manage full customer contracting and billing. Does your business fit the bill?
