Channel Partner Program Roundup: M-Files, HiSoftware, Anchor

Howdy, and welcome to this week’s Channel Partner Program Roundup, our weekly collection of all things channel partner-related. This week we’ve got news from M-Files, HiSoftware and Anchor, so if you’re ready, let’s start this roundup.

M-Files: The cloud, on-premise and hybrid enterprise content management (ECM) solutions vendor has added LBMC Technologies to its M-Files Partner Program.

LBMC Technologies works with SMB and Fortune 500 companies across the Southeast region of the United States in a wide array of industries including healthcare, professional services, manufacturing, automotive, government and not-for-profit organizations.

By joining the M-Files Partner Program, companies can add a new revenue source in the document management and ECM market by selling and servicing M-Files as a solution that complements their existing product portfolio, according to the company. M-Files enables VARs, systems integrators and consulting services companies to serve the information management, quality and compliance requirements of their customers.

HiSoftware: The compliance vendor has added Summit 7 Systems to its Business Partner Program to resell the company’s compliance and security solutions for Microsoft SharePoint.

HiSoftware, a Microsoft Gold Certified ISV Partner, allows companies to easily manage compliance and risk with an integrated suite of solutions that audit and secure sensitive content in SharePoint.

Anchor: The provider of cloud-sync, sharing and collaboration for IT professionals announced that Katie Braband has been appointed director of Marketing and Channel Development. Braband previously helped build the partner program at Datto, where she recruited and on-boarded more than 800 MSPs.

“We are excited to have Katie join Anchor’s growing team. Katie’s knowledge and background with MSPs and VARs will push Anchor’s overall growth,” said A.K. Kapoor, co-founder and vice president of Sales at Anchor. “Katie’s track records at Datto and Axcient speak for themselves, and will provide major benefits for Anchor’s growing partner community.”

Most recently at Axcient, Braband helped build the reseller program for VARs, and worked closely with key distribution partners. Prior to Axcient, she served as vice president of Business Development at Datto, where she was responsible for all sales and marketing initiatives.

Also worth noting: Braband is a graduate of the McGuire Center for Entrepreneurship at the University of Arizona’s (my alma mater) Eller College of Management (Go Wildcats!!).

Well, that’s it for this week’s roundup. Mosey on back next week to see what we’ve corralled. Until then, stay safe.
