Aladdin Gets 2009 Everything Channel Five-Star Partner Program Guide Certification

Aladdin Knowledge Systems, a provider of information security now affiliated under common management with SafeNet, Inc., announced it has been recognized by Everything Channel as one of North America's top information-technology (IT) vendors for its Aladdin Partner Program.

Aladdin's partner program was awarded a Five-Star certification in the security category in Everything Channel's 15th annual 2009 Partner Program Guide (PPG). A list of PPG winners appeared in the March 30 issue of CRN magazine, the channel industry's publication.

The Aladdin Partner Program provides sales, marketing and technological support to Aladdin's channel through the sales, implementation and support process for each of Aladdin's enterprise products: eToken, SafeWord and eSafe, protecting identities, data and networks.

"Working with Aladdin is like working with an extension of our own sales organization," said Steve Groom, Director of Security and Wireless at Technology Integration Group. "Aladdin truly considers VARs to be partners and is willing to work on strategic sales and marketing projects, as well as customize solutions to meet the needs of our customers. The Aladdin Partner Program is a great program that enhances profits and truly satisfies customers by providing support and security solutions."

Research for the 2009 Everything Channel Partner Programs Guide and the Everything Channel Five-Star Program was conducted by Everything Channel's Institute for Partner Education & Development (IPED). IPED analyzed 130 vendor programs rating vendors' responses to nearly 60 in-depth questions about their partner programs in the six elements of sales support, marketing support, partner profitability, channel operations, communications and partner recruitment.
