Laserfiche announced that CRN, a brand of The Channel Company, has given the Laserfiche value-added reseller (VAR) program a 5-Star rating in the 2016 Partner Program Guide. The rating, which the Laserfiche VAR program first received in 2003, recognizes elite companies that offer best-in-class features for their channel programs.

“In the past year, Laserfiche VARs experienced unprecedented levels of success,” said Chris Wacker, CEO of Laserfiche. “The launch of Laserfiche 10, and new cloud and mobile solutions add to a robust ECM platform that helps VARs solve customers’ business problems and improve productivity, leading to profitable, long-term relationships for the reseller channel.”

“It’s been a tremendous partnership,” said Zaheer Master, President of Accelerated Information Systems, an award-winning professional services firm and Laserfiche reseller based in New York. “By adding Laserfiche as a product, my company has had three out of four years of 100-percent plus growth. It is absolutely the best business decision we ever made.”

The annual CRN Partner Program Guide is the definitive directory of IT vendors that provide products and programs to the IT channel. To determine the 2016 5-Star recipients, The Channel Company’s research team assessed vendors based on investments in partner profitability, program offerings, partner training and support, marketing programs and resources, sales support and communication.

“We’re growing our channel with VARs who are selling larger systems than ever,” said Hedy Belttary, Senior Vice President of Sales at Laserfiche. “Our program pairs a lucrative business model with comprehensive corporate support, which includes education and training, presales assistance and lead distribution, among other offerings. Our focus is to position our resellers for success, so that they can be productive and profitable as quickly as possible.”

In 2015, Laserfiche introduced a redesigned VAR onboarding program that emphasizes stronger business partnerships with resellers, adding to a week-long training class for new VARs, an in-depth online certification program, dedicated channel managers who provide hands-on sales assistance, and a knowledgeable presales team that performs customer demonstrations.
