Lenovo has introduced its first partner program for cloud and managed service providers (MSPs) following the transition of the IBM System x server business to Lenovo. According to the technology company, this new channel engagement program will offer service providers competitive prices, various financing plans, and the ability to choose infrastructure from its product portfolio.
The Lenovo Service Provider Program is designed to provide service providers with the following:
- Qualified Lenovo Service Provider Program enrollees will be eligible to purchase systems at a discount directly from distributors.
- Lenovo’s Kickstart program allows service providers to defer payments for up to 120 days, while its Rent & Grow program mirrors IT payments to usage. A Trade-In program for eligible products is also available to assist in recovering capital from currently installed assets.
- Lenovo offers Express and FlexPac solutions along with special rate incentives on Enterprise Solutions Services to enable rapid infrastructure deployment.
- Business development funds to further invest in company growth along with Lenovo x86 vouchers that may be used for certifications to improve technical skills.
