In an effort to offer strong business support to its channel partners and Value-Added Resellers (VARs), Cyberoam, a division of Elitecore Technologies and the leading innovator of identity-based unified threat management (UTM) solutions, today announces the launch of the Cyberoam Partner Portal. The portal is the latest extension of the Company’s Channel Partner Program, providing qualified partners with the resources and support infrastructure necessary to design and sell their next-generation identity-based UTM solutions.

The portal is a comprehensive platform that provides partners with online order processing, knowledge base and technical support in one location to streamline Cyberoam partners’ sales process. Partners can now order appliances and renew service subscriptions 24x7x365, allowing them to meet customer demands at any time of day. Partners can also view their order history and track all order placements.

Cyberoam partners also have access to the complete set of Cyberoam sales, marketing and technical documents, including case studies, whitepapers, FAQs, competitive analysis, information on troubleshooting, and other collateral to support all sales efforts, lead generation and support activity.

“Cyberoam’s Partner Portal provides us with 24x7 access to the materials our sales team requires,” said John Beudreau, Vice President, Business Development, Micros Northeast. “We’re always looking for the most up-to-date information on pricing, sales collateral and competitive data to ensure we’re providing our customers with the security solutions that best meet their needs. Now with Cyberoam’s dedicated portal, everything we need to meet our sales objectives is right at our fingertips.”

The Cyberoam Partner Portal also provides live sales and technical support. Through the portal, partners can submit support questions and trouble ticketing for themselves and customers, and receive an immediate response from Cyberoam staff. Each partner can also create a Master Profile that can be leveraged to create additional user accounts for sales and support staff with defined role-based access rights.

Cyberoam continues to provide its channel partners with amazing sales and marketing support,” said Steve Barone, President and CEO, Creative Breakthroughs, Inc. “Closing sales and fulfilling customer demands is now much simpler with the Partner Portal in place. All of our partner discounts are built right into our customized profile to help streamline our sales and order processes, and we have around-the-clock access to online technical and sales support – further enabling us to meet our business and sales objectives.”

“As a channel sales-focused organization, it’s imperative that we provide our partners and resellers with the resources they need to maintain high profitability and more importantly, meet customer demand,” said Joshua Block, Vice President of North American Operations, Cyberoam. “With the Partner Portal, our partners now have unlimited access to a one-stop-shop for sales, marketing and technical support – enabling them to shorten their sales cycle, and boost overall growth and productivity.”

Cyberoam appliances range from CR25i to CR1500i, and help meet the security and compliance demands of small to large enterprises, remote offices, branch offices, educational institutions and MSSPs. Cyberoam’s identity-based UTM solutions provide a robust range of security features including identity-based firewall, VPN, gateway antivirus, gateway anti-spam, intrusion prevention system, and content filtering, in addition to bandwidth management and multiple link management, all over a single platform.
