Specific benefits for Gold Partners include increased access to sales and marketing tools and CommVault technical resources and pricing differentiation, putting them at the leading edge of data protection advances.
This status is subject to meeting annual revenue targets for software licence sales and other goals set by mutual agreement. In addition, partners must maintain levels of certification.

We look forward to continue cultivating close relationships with the right partners, developing a highly competitive, dynamic and skilled sales force,” says Wonfor.
CommVault
CommVault is a Nasdaq-listed, globally operating software and services company focused exclusively on data management. It provides companies with a better way to manage their data. This is achieved through its Singular Information Management approach.
Traditionally, software vendors have offered companies separate products for each discipline of data management (backup, archive, compliance, replication, and reporting). CommVault has combined these into one software product, each application module sharing a common technology engine, which successfully reduces the cost and complexity of data management.
