Kingston Technology has revamped its partner portal and enhanced its online training offering as it looks to get closer to its channel.

The memory and flash vendor has launched the portal in six different languages ­ English, French, German, Italian, Polish and Spanish ­- allowing partners signed up to the Kingston Partner Program to interact and engage with Kingston representatives and access sales and marketing materials.

Gill Taylor, European channel marketing manager at Kingston Technology Europe, said: “We wanted to integrate very closely with partners and treat them like an extension of our business.”

Another new feature is the ability for resellers to come straight to Kingston for stock availability and special pricing.

The vendor has also bolstered its online training offering by adding three new Flash training modules to complement its existing six modules for DRam.

“Resellers just need to register and they can access all this material,” Taylor said.

Andrew Henderson, managing director of distributor Simms International, said: “It is great to know that as a Kingston partner, we have access to the right resources, training and support."
