Cloudflare Channel Business Accelerates with New Program Advancements

Cloudflare, Inc. (NYSE: NET), the leading connectivity cloud company, today announced the acceleration of its channel business with new solution bundles across its platform for partners. The newly launched bundles enable Cloudflare’s PowerUP Partner Program partners to help businesses better secure and manage their applications through a single platform with tailored bundles—eliminating the complexity from multiple solutions.

Today, organizations are using more applications and AI workloads in an effort to make their business faster and more productive. However, this digital sprawl also means there are more applications that need to be managed and secured. Traditionally, partners have been tasked with identifying and managing solutions for only select areas of a business, without visibility across all of the various applications they may be using. To better protect their entire organization, companies need partners that can deliver a consolidated approach to securing their entire environment—not just specific applications or business areas.

Cloudflare’s PowerUP Partner Program now offers solution bundles to equip partners with the tools to eliminate application complexity, reduce cyber risk, enable connectivity between multiple clouds, and cut costs. The new solution bundles also provide substantial discounts for partners, dependent on the partner level and solutions. Each bundle is tailored to give any customer a clear path to adopt networking and security with SASE and applications services at-scale.

“Partners are at the core of Cloudflare’s go-to-market strategy. This past year we have introduced innovative tools, launched impactful incentives, and expanded enablement to help our partners equip more businesses with the security, performance, and reliability of Cloudflare’s connectivity cloud platform,” said Tom Evans, Chief Partner Officer at Cloudflare. “Partners are actively turning to us to help customers consolidate at-scale. Now, our new solution bundles will help them capitalize on this opportunity.”
