Open to present and aspiring solution architects both inside HPE and among its partners, the new HPE Tech Pro Community is designed to expand the vendor’s access to qualified providers of an increasingly strategic function.

The new resource provides access to products, kits, and end-to-end solutions from over 30 vendors (including Cisco, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, and Microsoft) across a range of verticals (including retail, healthcare, smart buildings, and industrial IoT).

New capabilities introduced today by cloud exec Renee Bergeron (pictured) are designed to help channel pros mimic the best practices of resellers who emphasize client acquisition and customer service rather than backend operational processes.

Speakers at the distributor’s Cloud Summit event, including Morgan Stanley executive Carla Harris (pictured), agreed that to thrive in an overwhelmingly male industry women must both expect and strategize to win.

Under an agreement with software maker Pickit announced at Ingram’s 2019 Cloud Summit event, U.S. partners can now bundle Pickit’s PowerPoint image service into Office 365 deals at a price low enough to potentially double their margins.

The new functionality, which provides access to information about tickets associated with specific contacts and configurations, underscores IT Glue’s continued dedication to integration with competitors of parent company Kaseya, according to VP of Product Luis Giraldo (pictured).

Delivered in partnership with Automation Anywhere, the new offerings use artificial intelligence to augment human workforces with software-based bots, allowing companies to focus on strategic activities rather than rote tasks.

The security vendor is staffing up on support, signing integration pacts with RMM makers, and more, according to channel chief Joe Sykora (pictured), who says a new tiered partner program structure with bigger discounts for top sellers is coming soon too.

Based on technology from Zscaler, the new cloud-based solution is designed to put affordable, easily-deployed, enterprise-grade web protection within reach of SMBs.

Expected to reach market by May, the new offerings are core elements of a new network security framework designed to help businesses deliver security efficiently and cost-effectively at both core and remote locations.
