Equipping Partners to Lead in a World Where Every Byte of Data Matters and Forever Archives Are Essential
Quantum Corporation (NASDAQ:QMCO) today announced updates to its Quantum Alliance Partner Program, delivering new tools, training, and incentives designed to help partners grow their pipeline, accelerate deals, and capture new opportunities. Building on its recognition as a 2025 CRN 5-Star Partner Program, Quantum continues to invest in partner success, empowering the channel to lead in a world where AI, analytics, and innovation demand smarter, more scalable data strategies.
In today's AI-driven world, enterprises must save every byte of data to fuel future model training, deeper analytics, and innovation. Quantum uniquely helps customers meet this challenge across the full data lifecycle—with high-performance storage for active "working" data, backup and protection for fast recovery and cyber resilience, and scalable, cost-optimized solutions for secure, durable forever archives. Our mission is to educate and equip our channel partners to lead these conversations, helping them become trusted advisors to enterprise IT teams in industries like financial services, manufacturing, government, research, and healthcare, where saving every byte isn't just important, it's essential for long-term success.
The following enhancements to the Quantum Alliance program arm partners with the technologies, education, and incentives they need to help customers thrive in a data-driven world:
New Incentives Reward Growth
Quantum's enhanced program introduces rewards for new customer acquisition and existing account expansion. Quantum's Prospect+ incentive helps partners accelerate high-value opportunities and grow their pipeline. The Connect+ incentive offers partners a simple way to kickstart new sales conversations by earning rewards for setting up qualified meetings between Quantum representatives and new customers.
On-Demand Training and Enablement Additions
Quantum offers a growing library of sales and technical training that empowers partners to build expertise across Quantum's full data lifecycle management portfolio from ingest and collaboration to backup, data protection, and low-cost, secure, scalable, forever-archive solutions. Our campaigns-in-a-box make it easy for partners to educate their customers on Quantum's solutions and benefits. These resources help partners become trusted advisors who deliver value to their customers for data lifecycle management.
Amplify Loyalty Program
The new Amplify loyalty program gives partners points for each action they take in the Quantum Alliance Portal, from completing certifications, watching webinars, and downloading content. Points are accumulated and can be redeemed for rewards, helping partners get recognized for the work they already do to grow their business.
Continuing Industry Recognition
In addition to being named a CRN 5-Star partner program, Quantum also received recognition for its leading solutions for partners and end users, recently being named to CRN's Storage 100, Data Center 50, and Cloud 100 lists. Quantum's Vice President of Global Channel Programs, Guillaume Crapart, was also named a 2025 CRN Channel Chief for his leadership and dedication to developing strong programs for and relationships with the channel community.
"These enhancements are about putting more tools, more rewards, and more opportunities in the hands of our partners," said Guillaume Crapart, vice president of global channel programs at Quantum. "We've designed these updates not only to help partners grow their pipeline and increase profitability, but also to serve their customers better. By making it easier to access training, engage with our solutions, and expand into new markets, we're helping partners deliver more value across the entire data lifecycle and help customers build an intelligent, scalable, cost-effective infrastructure to save every byte of data for decades for AI, insights, and innovation."
"The Quantum Alliance Program has been a true accelerator for our business," said Ken Christopher, chief operating officer for Paper Pushers IT, a value-added reseller.
