Versa Networks Earns Two Channel Visionary Spotlight Awards

Company Recognized as Winner in the Best Emerging Technology Breakthrough and Channel Program of the Year Awards Categories

Versa Networks, the recognized leader of single-vendor Unified Secure Access Service Edge (SASE), today announced it has won two 2023 Visionary Spotlight Awards (VSAs). The awards were presented by ChannelVision Magazine for Versa’s Zero Trust Everywhere solution in the Best Emerging Technology Breakthrough awards category; and for its Secure Access Service Edge Specialized Certification offered from its 5-Star Rated Versa ACE (Accelerate, Captivate, Engage) Partner Program in the Channel Program of the Year awards category.

According to the VSA judges: “With Versa Zero Trust Everywhere, enterprises can leverage Versa’s AI/ML-powered Unified SASE platform to enable in-line zero-trust policy enforcement for remote workers and onsite/hybrid workers. With the launch of Zero Trust Everywhere, Versa expanded its portfolio with two products that deliver Zero Trust Everywhere: Versa Zero Trust – Premises (ZT-Prem), a secure access solution for branch and campus users connecting to applications and workloads hosted in the enterprise data centers or private clouds; and Versa Secure Software-Defined LAN (Versa SD-LAN) which modernizes the campus and branch LAN with a software-defined, hardware agnostic approach that delivers an in-line ZTNA solution and an assured user-to-application experience.”

Versa sells 100 percent through the channel via the Versa ACE Partner Program, the company’s global channel partner program for VARs, SIs, SPs and MSPs launched in 2021. The program expands the ecosystem of highly engaged Versa partners delivering unique customer value through its differentiated Versa Unified SASE and Versa Titan solutions. The program provides formalized sales, pre-sales, and technical training focused on enabling partners to build specialties and become SASE Specialized and/or Titan Specialized. The program offers the industry’s first SASE accreditation to its partners. Versa ACE partners are rewarded for achieving competency and expertise in their specialty areas and are eligible for discounts, and sales and marketing benefits to provide new revenue opportunities.

“It is rewarding for Versa to be recognized with these Best Emerging Technology Breakthrough and Channel Program of the Year awards,” said John Atchison, Head of Global Channel Marketing with Versa. “Versa has a long history of working in the channel, and our growing partner ecosystem recognizes the value our channel offerings and comprehensive partner program provide. Versa’s ACE partners are positioned to capitalize on the massive SASE opportunity with the industry’s leading Unified SASE solution; and they uniquely benefit from a program structure which fosters a synergistic relationship for growth, new opportunities, and prosperity both today and into the future.”

The Versa ACE Partner Program provides partners with a ramp to revenue plan which enables them to quickly onboard and successfully start generating pipeline within 90 days. Included in the ramp-up resources is enablement through Versa Academy, a global learning platform. The program structure requires that partners complete the prescriptive sales, pre-sales, technical training and certifications to successfully facilitate customer engagements that deliver unique customer value. The program was created to generate new recurring revenue opportunities and increase profitability and margins through the creation of new partner value-added services, enabling partners to differentiate themselves from their competitors.
