Panda Security Named a CRN Emerging Tech Vendor for Panda Managed Office Protection
Panda Security's proprietary cloud computing model, Collective Intelligence(TM), is at the center of Panda's Managed Office Protection, offering the industry's most advanced method for detecting and remediating viruses. With the hosting and management occurring completely in the cloud, Panda offers companies the benefit of a lower cost of ownership while delivering far higher levels of protection than that of traditional antivirus solutions.
Fully managed services are an important component of Panda Managed Office Protection, a Web management console that enables secure configuration of IT resources from any computer on the Internet. The new Web-based subscription service releases businesses from additional hardware, maintenance personnel and other resources dedicated to antivirus while delivering the highest levels of security for all nodes on the network, including PCs, laptops, servers and remote branch offices. As a fully managed set of services, Panda Managed Office Protection allows organizations to administer their protection anytime from anywhere, including those from remote offices which are not connected to the LAN, without additional infrastructure investments. It also enables Managed Service Providers (MSP) to better support their customers without having the burden of building a specific infrastructure.
According to the CRN Emerging Tech Survey, the top reasons solution providers add emerging technologies include, the technology is superior to other products in the market segment; the technology compliments a solution providers' existing practice areas; emerging vendors provide better services opportunities; emerging vendors pay better attention to partners; emerging vendors offer higher margins, customers want alternative product choices; and emerging vendors have better joint marketing programs. In addition, 61 percent of solutions providers surveyed plan to increase the number of emerging technology vendors they partner with in the next 12 months.
"New and innovative vendor partners can help spur profitable new ideas that Solution Providers can use to build revenue and customer loyalty, and the CRN Emerging Tech list is where Solution Providers go to find these vendors," said
Vendors who make the CRN Emerging Tech list must have an established solution provider program and formal guidelines for recruiting channel partners. They must demonstrate that its direct sales mix is trending down as evidenced by the company's revenue history, a channel positive or channel neutral strategy for internal sales compensation, and not be a dominant market share player. Final selection to the Emerging Technology list was made at the discretion of the CRN editorial team after a review of the submitted information and conversations with current or targeted partners.
"In an increasingly threatening malware environment, the success we have experienced with our 1100+ channel partners has spawned an industry-wide awareness and demand for mitigating the perils that networks are faced with on a daily basis," said
