On top of the rapid growth in membership for the Cohesity partner program, channel partners have achieved remarkable productivity levels. Already more than two-thirds of partners have won a deal with Cohesity or have an active opportunity they are pursuing in the next two quarters. SHI International, which has worked with Cohesity since May, brought in the most new customers and total revenue among national partners for fiscal year 2016 to win the Top National Partner award. StorageIT, which joined the Cohesity network in November 2015, achieved the highest revenue among partners focused on specific regions to win the Top Regional Partner award.

Cohesity also announced the addition of several important new domestic partners including Logicalis, Kinney Group, Pinnacle Business Systems, Roundtower and WWT, along with 10 new partners in Europe. With many more VARs expressing strong interest in joining the Revolution Partner Program, Cohesity continues to build channel momentum and accelerate its international expansion.
