LAWRENCE, Kan. — Jan. 22, 2019 — Cobalt Iron Inc., a leading provider of enterprise data protection SaaS, has launched the Cobalt Iron Partner Portal, an online portal where the company's partners can access collateral, register deals, request sales support, and find answers to frequently asked questions. Providing the most current sales enablement tools and resources, the new partner portal will be a one-stop shop for all Cobalt Iron channel partners: resellers, value-added resellers and distributors, and service providers that resell SaaS or deploy backup-as-a-service and DR-as-a-service.
"Channel partners, service providers, certified platform partners, and integration partners — we consider every one to be just that: our partner," said Andy Hurt, CMO at Cobalt Iron. "It is through our partner ecosystem that we deliver smart, secure, and automated data protection everywhere, and the new Cobalt Iron Partner Portal reflects our commitment to supporting that partner ecosystem and enabling sales."
"According to projections from International Data Corporation (IDC), the overall data management market will reach annual spending of $48.6 billion in 2019. This forecast suggests enormous potential for Cobalt Iron's enterprise backup and data protection technologies. As a 100-percent channel-focused company, Cobalt Iron is accelerating opportunities to transform enterprise backup. The portal announced today gives Cobalt Iron Partners access to sales tools, educational materials, videos, and more. Additional benefits include:
