Symantec wants to reward partners selling into public sector

Security giant Symantec is to increase its deal registration rebates by a minimum of 100 per cent for partners selling into the public sector.

The increase, which comes into force from 30 November, follows on from the launch of Symantec’s Opportunity Registration Programme in September.

Paul Lyden, director of partner programmes for Symantec in EMEA, said: “The public sector is a very competitive market and we realise that our partners make significant investments.

“Symantec is committed to driving a more profitable and predictable business for partners and so we are making these exciting changes to help our partners be even more competitive and continue to invest in growth.”

Justin Griffiths, vice president in partner management and marketing for Symantec Gold partner Insight, said: “Insight has invested significantly in developing a strong value proposition for public sector clients in the UK and across the rest of EMEA.

“Symantec has the right solutions for this segment of the market and it is great to see them backing the channel so heavily. Predictability and profitability are top priorities for us in a partner relationship and Symantec is delivering on both of those.”
