Take a look at the Aruba Partner Program and you'll probably be able to see your company in it.

Aruba's new program is designed to reflect the unique needs of partners.

Some partner programs seem like a good deal, but in reality turn out to be little more than a listing on a website. When Aruba developed its new Partner Program, we set out to create a way to engage partners and, together, build success for our companies and our joint customers.

Build your business on proven solutions

The new Aruba Partner Program provides unique, customized sales tools, as well as two levels of interoperability testing. The program assures customers that your products and our products have been tested and work well together. Greater assurance means faster adoption and more trouble-free deployment.

In addition, the Aruba Partner Program increases your visibility with customers who are deploying and using Aruba wireless networks. From solution briefs to sales presentations, from speaking opportunities to web casts, your products will become a visible and known part of the Aruba eco-system.

The foundation level of the Partner Program is the Compatible Partner. The Compatible program is designed to ensure joint customers that our solutions work well together out-of-the-box. Compatible Partners win their designation by thoroughly testing how their products interoperate with Aruba's wireless products, using test plans provided by us. When the results pass Aruba's scrutiny the partner earns the Compatible designation.

The program begins with the Aruba Compatible Toolkit (available for an additional fee), which includes a set of Aruba gear as well as customized test configurations & guidelines that make it easy to show that the products work together. Once testing is complete and your test results are accepted by our Marketing Engineers, you earn the Aruba Compatible Partner designation. Partners can expect solution briefs on the Aruba web site, sales presentations and more, to show customers, prospects, and resellers the value of our products working together. We are also available to develop custom content, from demand generation to Web casts.

The Aruba Certified Partner Program takes interoperability a step further. The strategic partner products are thoroughly vetted in Aruba’s own labs at a very deep level and are regularly retested to provide the highest confidence interoperability that large customers require. A Certified Partner designation is the best assurance of trouble-free solutions that continue to perform well in complex and demanding deployments. Becoming a Certified Partner demonstrates a joint commitment to the best possible customer experience, and to seamless network operation.

The Certified Partner Program is currently by invitation only, though we expect to make it more broadly available in the future.

Joining the Aruba Partner Program starts with completing the application. The Aruba Partner Programs are provided under an annual program fee on a calendar year basis.
