Bolstered by new leadership and increased alignment with global channel partners, Gigamon retains position on distinguished CRN list of leading partner programs

Gigamon, the leading deep observability company, has been recognized by CRN^®, a brand of The Channel Company, with a prestigious 5-star rating in its 2023 Partner Program Guide for the fifth consecutive year. This annual guide offers essential information to solution providers as they explore technology manufacturers’ partner programs to find the vendors that will best support their business needs. The 5-star rating is awarded to the companies that go above and beyond in their commitment to nurturing strong, profitable, successful channel partnerships.

The Gigamon Catalyst Partner Program empowers Gigamon partners by offering a variety of digital marketing opportunities — including engaging demand generation programs — as well as in-depth training and enablement, sales tools, and financing. With a channel-first focus, Gigamon also equips its partners with a playbook to provide the expertise needed to bolster the effective utilization of cloud, security, and observability tools, successful ROI, and advanced visibility capabilities for organizations across the globe.

“We’re honored to receive a 5-star rating for the fifth year in a row as our team continues to prioritize cloud-first partnerships and deeper ecosystem alignment,” said Dee Dee Acquista, recently appointed vice president of worldwide channel and alliances. “We’re committed to bringing greater awareness to the benefits of deep observability to help organizations enhance business agility, ensure cloud security, and contain the cost and complexity associated with managing hybrid cloud infrastructure.”

The Gigamon Deep Observability Pipeline efficiently delivers network-derived intelligence and insights to cloud, security, and observability tools to help eliminate security blind spots and reduce tool costs. This powerful combination enables organizations to better secure and manage their hybrid and multi-cloud infrastructure.

“Deep observability equips organizations with the intelligence they need to supercharge their cloud, security, and observability tools to realize the full transformational promise of the cloud,” said Acquista. “In fact, in a recent research study, 75 percent of enterprises believe deep observability is essential to delivering defense in depth across the hybrid cloud infrastructure.”

“In today’s world, the need for innovation is greater than ever,” said Blaine Raddon, CEO of The Channel Company. “Solution providers seek vendors that can keep pace with their developing business and evolving client needs. CRN’s 2023 Partner Program Guide delivers deep insight into the strengths of each program, spotlighting the vendors dedicated to supporting their partner community and pushing positive change throughout the IT channel.”

The Gigamon Catalyst Partner Program and its world-class leaders have been consistently recognized by CRN over the years. This includes four consecutive CRN Women of the Channel and three consecutive CRN Channel Chief award wins, a 2020 Channel Partner Top 10 Up recognition, and was among CRN's Power 100 - Top Most Powerful Woman in the Channel in 2019.

Additionally, Acquista has been consistently recognized by CRN for her contributions to the channel, including CRN’s Channel Chief (2018-2022), CRN’s Power 100 (2018-2022), and CRN’s Women of the Channel (2010-2022) awards.

Companies included in the 2023 CRN Partner Program Guide were evaluated based on specific program requirements and offerings that set vendors apart and play key roles in boosting partners’ long-term growth. A 5-star rating helps companies identify vendors best fit for their needs. The 2023 Partner Program Guide will be featured in the April 2023 issue of CRN and online at www.CRN.com/PPG.
