Silver Peak has introduced its Global Authorised Deployment Partner programme to enable its partners to deliver enhanced SD-WAN services to enterprises that want to make use of cloud-based networking to boost their business operation.

The programme will train and certify a carefully selected group of Silver Peak's service partners with the skills and knowledge they need to deploy Silver Peak Unity EdgeConnect SD-WAN solution in customer organisations, offering the advice and best practices to help businesses succeed.

Silver Peak explained its motivation behind the introduction of its new partner programme is to simplify its channel programme and ensure end-customers are as well-prepared for an SD-WAN-powered future.

“Silver Peak is providing partners with an unprecedented opportunity to add additional high-margin services to their portfolio while helping enterprise customers to confidently deploy the Silver Peak EdgeConnect SD-WAN solution,” said Kristian Thyregod, vice president for the Europe, Middle East and Africa region at Silver Peak.

“As a company deeply committed to the channel, our new ADP programme will dramatically reduce channel complexity and provide enterprise customers with options when implementing and deploying an SD-WAN solution that aligns to their unique business and cloud requirements. We are delighted to have already welcomed a number of valued partners to our ADP programme.”

Silver Peak has already onboarded a number of partners including Cavell Group, FireOwls Corporation, Geode Networks, Traversa Solutions and Velociti to its Global Authorised Deployment Partner programme in the US, EMEA and APAC regions.

“Silver Peak fully recognises that SD-WAN is a rapidly growing industry, and having their endorsement behind our SD-WAN consultancy, design, deployment and lifecycle management services enables our customers to deploy Silver Peak confidently, quickly and easily," Andy de Clerck, director at Geode Networks commented.
