ViewSonic Given 5-Star Rating in CRN’s 2016 Partner Program Guide

Annual Guide Recognizes the Best Channel Partner Programs in the Market

BREA, CA (April 11, 2016) – ViewSonic Corp., a leading global provider of visual solution products, announces that CRN®, a brand of The Channel Company has given ViewSonic’s Finch Club a 5-Star rating in its 2016 Partner Program Guide. This annual guide is the definitive listing of technology vendors that service solution providers or provide products through the IT channel. The 5-Star Partner Program Guide rating recognizes an elite subset of companies that offer solution providers the best partnering elements in their channel programs.



To determine the 2016 5-Star ratings, The Channel Company’s research team assessed each vendor’s application based on investments in program offerings, partner profitability, partner training, education and support, marketing programs and resources, sales support and communication.

Meeting The Channel Company’s requirements for the Partner Program Guide, ViewSonic’s Finch Club™ Partner Program was honored with a 5-Star rating. ViewSonic’s specifically tailored channel partner program delivers a portfolio of resources and tools that empowers its resellers and solution providers to grow their business. Featured elements of Finch Club include vertical market training and advice, technical and sales training, selling opportunities, sales and marketing tools, referrals and much more.

“Solution providers have more choices than ever before when it comes to selecting vendor partners. Identifying the right vendor with the right technologies and the right channel approach can mean the difference between successful adoption of a new technology or business model and an awkward, unnecessarily difficult integration,” said Robert Faletra, CEO, The Channel Company. “Our annual Partner Program Guide and 5-Star ratings recognize the best channel programs available in the market today and serve as a valuable resource for solution providers looking for the right fit.”

“To be honored with another 5-Star Rating from CRN’s Partner Program Guide is a terrific accomplishment for ViewSonic and a testament to our dedication to our channel partners,” said Clark Broyles, director of channel & VAR sales at ViewSonic. “As we continue to bring the latest technologies into our family of products, we also know it’s just as important to ensure that ViewSonic’s channel programs continue to deliver the support our partners need.”

The 2016 Partner Program Guide will be featured in the February issue of CRN and online.
