Vendor Testimonials

“...I really enjoyed the [Lifeboat 2012 Partner Business Development Summit] event in Atlantic City. It was better than last year from our perspective because there were more VARs...who were looking for ways to differentiate themselves to their customers/prospects. It is always great to meet your team and execs; we enjoy working with you.”

—Tom Ahern, North America Channel Sales Manager
Datawatch Corporation

“Lifeboat has been the distribution partner that has shepherded the last three manufacturers that I worked for to market through distribution. That said, I have never been part of the on-boarding process before; this was neat to experience.”

“I wanted to make sure to compliment Stephanie for her AMAZING coverage yesterday [following Hurricane Irene]! She handled the non-stop requests from Acronis — and the realization of lost POs extremely well. She was able to quickly identify the issues, stayed cool and polite with everyone she worked with, and was able to account for each of the expected orders. Thank you so much Lifeboat for your month-end professionalism during the post-hurricane chaos.”

—Reca Mikaili, CDW Channel Manager
Acronis, Inc.

“Lifeboat's operational excellence has helped considerably in rapidly building momentum for our software development products, most especially the recently released Intel Parallel Studio XE and Intel Cluster Studio.

“I wanted to send a note to thank you for all your hard work and numerous calls to see this substantial deal to closure. Your experience on deals outside of the US was a imperative asset toward execution. This deal would not have been completed without you and your team's help. We also appreciate all your patience, follow-up and diligence toward completion with the many people involved. Thanks for being an outstanding partner for both us and our customer!”

—Eric Haslinger, Regional Sales Manager, Smart Systems Management
Quest Software

“I want to make you aware of the great help that Nicole and Erin have provided to Datawatch in their business development within [a key corporate reseller]. They have a strong relationship with [the reseller] and have made contacts within multiple departments, which I believe was instrumental in helping us get the stocking order completed. We have had limited access within [the reseller] but your team has been great in providing Datawatch with additional mindshare and even face time with the folks at the reseller. Again, a great job by Nicole and Erin.”

—Peter Concannon, Channel Manager
Datawatch Corporation

“For Flexera Software, one of the key components that drove our decision to maintain a single point of distribution for North America with Lifeboat was the access and dedication of the Lifeboat team. Other distributors within North America gave us limited access to sales staff for training and to executive teams for business reviews without paying fairly large marketing sums. The constant engagement Lifeboat allows us with all areas of their business helps us have transparency into our channel market.”

—El Lages, Director of North American Sales
Flexera Software

“Lifeboat is easy to do business with, and the value they add continues to grow as our partner network grows. We appreciate Lifeboat’s knowledge and professionalism in dealing with our Veeam ProPartners.”
