Infor Announces CloudSuite™ Specialization Program For Alliance Partners
Published Feb 17, 2016

Infor, a leading provider of beautiful business applications specialized by industry and built for the cloud, recently announced a new Infor CloudSuite™ specialization program for alliance partners. The new program allows partners to complete a series of requirements that result in specialization credentials, signifying applicable training to help customers move to the Infor cloud. Upon completion of the Infor CloudSuite specialization program requirements, partners will receive formal validation and acknowledgement from Infor, which differentiates the alliance partner from other partners relative to their training regarding Infor CloudSuite.
"We are pleased to have alliance partners that are specially trained to help meet some of the unique needs of our customers. This program is designed to help ensure that every customer is able to take advantage of the speed and flexibility of a modern cloud platform, with the added confidence of a trained partner to help guide the transition onto an Infor cloud solution," said Vibhu Kapoor, Director Channel & Alliances Ecosystem – India, Middle East & Africa at Infor.
To qualify for cloud accreditation, applicants must have an existing Infor Partner Network (IPN) alliance agreement and must be in good standing. Eligible partners seeking to participate in the program must complete a four-step validation process consisting of nomination, application, review and award. To begin the nomination process, eligible partners can request a program application from an Infor Alliance manager, who will then provide a checklist of requirements and initiate the process. Eligible alliance partners that have solution experience, have completed the required training and have a successful track record of customer implementations, including assisting customers transitioning to cloud will receive their Infor CloudSuite specialization credential. Partners that are awarded Infor CloudSuite specialization credential will be granted the following entitlements: a Hook & Loop CloudSuite logo and certificate of recognition, acknowledgement in the quarterly Infor PR Newswire, and will have their specialization highlighted on the Infor Partner Finder.
"Our alliance partners are a critical component of Infor's cloud strategy. The cloud specialization program is designed to help our partners deliver an extra level of comfort to customers, by allowing them to see measureable proof that Infor is working closely with each credentialed partner to help ensure appropriate training to help customers move to the cloud," continued Vibhu. "By requiring each partner to complete specific requirements, Infor and the partner are able to demonstrate our ability to work together to help customers transition successfully to Infor CloudSuite."
This latest program complements the Infor Micro-Vertical Specialization Program, which was unveiled in 2013, to help deliver direct benefits to Infor customers by helping partners capitalize on existing market needs and by making available the latest Infor cloud technology. In turn, these IPN members can be in a position to develop a new compelling revenue stream for their business.
For more information, IPN alliance partners should contact their Alliance Partner Manager or contact ipn@infor.com. If you are interested in becoming an Infor Alliance partner visit, www.infor.com/partners/alliance-partners/.
