Nutanix Unveils Partner Program Updates and Incentives

New Updates to Elevate Partner Program Better Enable Partner Ecosystem to Capture Market Opportunities, Build Profit Continuums, and Enhance Cloud Differentiation

Nutanix, a leader in hybrid multicloud computing, announced the next era of Elevate, a global partner program designed to re-define the partner engagement journey. Nutanix has evolved the Elevate program focus to provide a better experience for the entire partner ecosystem and customers throughout the customer lifecycle, while staying true to the program’s unified framework. This includes an expanded benefits package to build a partner profit continuum.

“The Nutanix Elevate Program has been the framework in which we have been able to develop our skills, to position ourselves competitively in the market and to help us grow profitably”

“The IT industry is at an inflection point in how customers want to procure and consume technology,” said Christian Alvarez, Senior Vice President of Worldwide Channel Sales at Nutanix. “With our updates to the Elevate program, we’ve addressed many of our partners’ needs to engage with customers through their lifecycle – not just selling the technology, but enabling them to adopt, perform, expand, and ultimately renew. Elevate now supports and rewards partners along this entire journey through purpose-built benefits and incentives.”
