Epicor Software Corporation, a provider of enterprise business software solutions for the midmarket and divisions of Global 1000 companies, announced that it has been recognized by Everything Channel’s VARBusiness magazine as one of North America’s top information-technology (IT) vendors for its Epicor Partners for Growth Program.
Epicor was certified as a Gold 5-Star Overall Winner in the VARBusiness 2008 Partner Program Guide (PPG), which acknowledges the commitment and strength of a vendor’s partner programs for its Channel resellers, IT integrators, and technology consultants. Of the hundreds of vendor program entries reviewed for this year’s guide, in addition to earning the Gold 5-Star award for its overall program, Epicor was one of the coveted few programs to win Silver 5-Star awards in all six of the categories against which programs are reviewed and measured. The six categories are: sales support, marketing support, partner profitability, channel operations, partner recruitment and communications.
“The quality of a vendor’s partner program reflects the true commitment they have to the thriving Solution Provider Channel, and this year’s 5-Star Partner Programs Guide winners are the cream of the crop of Channel-friendly vendors,” said Robert C. DeMarzo, Senior Vice President and Editorial Director, Everything Channel.
