Security outfit GFI Software has launched a formal
channel partner program complete with a new deal registration system
and the promise of improved profit margins.

GFI - a developer of
network and content security and messaging software – has placed
resellers in gold, silver and bronze levels based on quarterly revenue
targets and sales and technical capabilities.

Gold and silver
partners would be entitled to qualified sales leads. Resellers attain
silver partner status if they meet the revenue threshold and have one
sales and one technical person trained on staff.

Gold partners
are required to have two sales and two technical staff trained in GFI’s
software, said Michael Early, regional manager, A/NZ at GFI.
