New Program Offers Strategic, Sales, Marketing, Technical & Operational Support to Drive Recurring Revenue
BATAVIA, Ill., & LAS VEGAS, April 24, 2023 – High Wire Networks Inc. (OTCQB: HWNI), a leading global provider of managed cybersecurity and IT enablement services, announced today at Kaseya Connect Global the expansion of its Overwatch Managed Cybersecurity Partner Program for managed services providers (MSPs) seeking a strategic partner to help accelerate recurring revenue growth from cybersecurity services.
The enhanced partner program includes benefits that help our MSP partners of all sizes across their journey to grow their business in managed cybersecurity from demand generation and service delivery to onboarding and enablement. Partners receive guidance from a dedicated Partner Success Manager and Marketing who works with partners to develop a tailored success plan, incorporating on-demand and virtual sales and technical training, cobranded marketing collateral and campaigns, deal registration and demo access. In addition, partners also are eligible for discounts, MDF and bundled pricing for EDR and Managed XDR, and other services.
The partner program update elevates the level of support High Wire delivers across key areas of the MSPs’ business, such as:
- Business Strategy — analyzing market opportunities, providing expert consultation on market positioning, supporting strategic planning and ensuring executive alignment across both companies
- Sales & Marketing — delivering one-on-one sales training tailored to their business and customer base, aligning joint sales and go-to-market plans, and driving demand and lead generation through campaigns and events
- Technical — integrating Overwatch ticketing and support with partners’ RMM/PSA platforms, facilitating testing with a dedicated lab and performing proofs of concept
- Operations —aligning service delivery workflows, integrating partners’ systems with the Overwatch Security Operations Center (SOC) for visibility and consulting on time-saving automations for alert handling
Supporting Quotes
“Over the past few years, MSPs have increasingly focused on helping SMB and midmarket businesses address cybersecurity challenges. We want to help them take their managed security practices to a higher level by providing comprehensive network and data protection solutions and end-to-end support throughout the customer journey. The Overwatch Partner Program offers MSPs the strategic partnership they need to grow their recurring revenue with cybersecurity.”
- Stephan Tallent, CRO, High Wire Networks
“We selected High Wire because of their best-of-breed technologies and their exceptional team of cybersecurity experts that oversee their U.S.-based security operations center. In contrast to our previous partnership engagements, High Wire has proven to be an extraordinarily valuable advisor with deep resources as we onboarded our clients on the Overwatch platform and continue to help them navigate the ever-changing cybersecurity landscape.”
- Mike Kolb, COO, Framework IT (High Wire Partner)
“As consultants and technologists, it is important that we are able to effectively communicate the value and benefits of our recommendations to our clients, and Overwatch makes that communication and delivery easy, providing tremendous support throughout the entire process from sales through implementation,”
- Joe Bonanno, President and Co-founder, Archetype SC (High Wire Partner)
“Overwatch Managed Security is a Cybersecurity Partner ‘for life’. When things got tough, they cared. That’s what we want- a partner who isn’t dismissive to feedback but wants to improve our experience, and in return gives us the confidence and trust we require to approach our clients with their cybersecurity expertise and services.”
- Cory Russell, CEO, Layer 7 Systems (High Wire Partner)
