Program Levels

 
Global Alliance Program
Solutions
Partners in this category are generally Value-Added Resellers (VARs) and Application Service Providers (ASPs) that specialize in line-of-business or industry specific applications.
Solution Partner Profile
Partners in this category re-sell Livelink, the leading collaboration and content management software for global organizations, combined with other Open Text and/or partner product offerings, along with their value-added services. Those services can include implementation, consulting, customization, integration, training, and support. Solution Partners provide the subject matter and vertical application expertise that adds measurable value to a customer's investment in an Open Text solution.
VARs
VARs (Value-Added Resellers) market and sell Open Text products, services, and solutions that typically fall outside of the primary focus areas of the direct Open Text sales focus. Working cooperatively with the Open Text Direct Sales organization, this type of Solution Partner is usually focused on a specific market segment, geography, or application.
ASPs
ASPs (Application Service Providers) provide specialized, hosted, collaborative ECM applications to intra-, extra-, and inter-organizational communities under a subscription-based business model. Preferential or captive access to target communities is a key enabler.
