Ingres Partners Overview
The Ingres Partner Program provides a new and refreshing opportunity for partners to grow margin, reduce total cost of ownership and build a healthy, sustainable business using the open source business model.
Unlike closed-source vendors, our partners benefit from a predictable revenue stream with support renewals. They can also increase their revenue by offering value added services, support and education.
Open source software is finally being acknowledged as a suitable platform for mission critical, enterprise scale deployments. Many organisations both in the private and public sectors are now mandating the inclusion of open source offerings in the selection process when planning new developments.
And therein lies the opportunity for partners. Since Ingres is committed to the business open source model, companies that can deploy Ingres or leverage Ingres with complementary products or services can access significant new revenue streams.
In addition, those companies that can help organisations to transform operationally can enhance their reputations by exploiting Ingres's proven, enterprise class, software and subscription based pricing model.
