Michelle’s recognition is well deserved: she has a keen understanding of partner challenges and aspirations, broad experience across the security market, operational acumen and a genuine desire to help channel partners succeed. One customer had this to say:

“As an established IT Solution Provider, I have worked with many vendors over the years and have seen a lot of product innovation, but very little channel innovation. Channel experience goes beyond basic discounting and training programs, and involves how products and services are procured from the vendor, resold to clients, and managed throughout their lifetime. Michelle and the team at WatchGuard have proven that they’re dedicated to both technology innovation and investment in improving partner experiences.”  Kevin Willette, President and CEO at Verus Corporation.
