Coffee With Craig and Kevin Episode No. 70: Poly, Webroot

The guys get insight on partner reaction to everything that's been happening at Poly.

Craig Galbraith, Editorial Director

January 15, 2020

Craig and Kevin are back with their first episode of the new year, the new decade!

You might say they’ve got 2020 vision in great new interviews with Poly and Webroot.

Poly channel chief Nick Tidd, one of our Channel Partners Top Gun 51 honorees from 2019, tells us how partners have reacted to the changes at the company — namely the merger of Plantronics and Polycom, followed by the rebrand to Poly. He also touches on new products and services rolling out at the company over the past few months and the exciting things coming down the road.

The guys also up their security game by welcoming George Anderson of Webroot to the show. He gets us caught up on advice for partners approaching their customers about security spending and the urgency for SMBs to stop thinking they’re immune from cyberattacks.

And it wouldn’t be a new year without one of Kevin’s whimsical industry metaphors. We’ve also got a preview of the hot keynotes and conference education tracks on tap for the upcoming Channel Partners Conference & Expo in March.
