Press releases · Cole Finch
Herndon, VA, March 26 — Expel, the leading managed detection and response (MDR) provider, was honored by CRN®, a brand of The Channel Company, with inclusion in its 2024 Partner Program Guide for the second consecutive year. This annual guide provides essential information to solution providers exploring technology vendor partner programs that offer high value and align with their business needs and goals.
“Recognition in the CRN Partner Program Guide confirms Expel’s renewed channel-first approach—rooted in collaboration, transparency, and dedicated support—is really resonating with partners and customers,” said Dan Webb, Vice President, Global Channel Sales & Alliances at Expel. “Our program has evolved to meet and exceed modern market needs. Expel’s significant investment in our team and program resources validate our commitment to creating a world-class partner experience, delivering unmatched value to customers and profitability for our partners.”
Last year, Expel launched its revamped partner program, investing heavily in go-to-market resources and a newly designed partner portal, the Expel Partner eXchange (EPX), a centralized platform to enable collaboration and enhance the partner experience. The Expel Partner Program helps customers tackle their most pressing security challenges and allows Expel to prioritize stronger partnerships.
For the 2024 Partner Program Guide, CRN evaluated vendors based on program requirements and offerings such as partner training and education, pre- and post-sales support, marketing programs and resources, technical support, and communication.
“Recognition on this list reflects the value of spotlighted vendor partner programs and their commitment to evolving with solution providers and supporting IT channel success,” said Jennifer Follett, VP, U.S. Content and Executive Editor, CRN, at The Channel Company. “This recognition empowers solution providers to discover vendors that keep pace with the evolving requirements of their business and their clients. With CRN’s 2024 Partner Program Guide, solution providers can access deep insights into the unique strengths of each partner program and the vendors who demonstrate dedication to their partner community.”
This distinction comes on the heels of Expel’s recent strategic partnership with Visa to help clients manage cybersecurity risk. CRN also recently featured Expel and its leadership on the 2024 Channel Chiefs list, CEO Outlook 2024, and on the CRN Security 100 as one of the 20 Coolest Endpoint and Managed Security Companies of 2024.
The 2024 Partner Program Guide will be featured in the April 2024 issue of CRN and online at www.CRN.com/PPG.
