For F5 Networks, it’s more than the bottom dollar when it comes to selecting the top “Channel Partners of the Year.” It’s about delivering “value to our joint customers,” and “staying current on the latest” F5 Networks technology. Key winners included:
- Distributor of the Year: Ingram Micro
- Growth Partner of the Year: CDW
- Federal Partner of the Year: Carahsoft
- VAR Partner of the Year: Scalar Decisions
Scalar Decisions also had the distinction of also being the Canadian Partner of the Year. Company Trace3 was named Partner of the Year for Data Solutions, while Milestone Systems and FishNet Security received Application Optimization and Security Partner of the Year awards, respectively.
If you haven’t noticed, F5 Networks has been considerably channel-focused in 2012, continuing its efforts to enhance its channel program, launch next-gen firewalls, provide partners with mobile device management solutions and ensure virtualization is silky smooth. It may be fair to say F5 Networks is offering all the tools its partners need to succeed, so we’ll be keeping a continued close watch on F5 Networks as it continues to build out its partner network through 2012.
