New SD-WAN NOW, IoT, voice and collaboration products available in AT&T Partner Solutions

Public Safety and AT&T Cybersecurity continue to be a focus

AT&T* Business continues its commitment to its channel programs in 2019, announcing product and program enhancements for AT&T Alliance Channel^TM, ACC Business, and AT&T Partner Exchange®. Our solution providers now have access to a new software-defined networking solution, expanded access to IoT services including connected car solutions, and voice and collaboration tools. Additional enhancements have been made to streamline the ordering process and accelerate installation for select services.

“Our commitment and investment in our channel programs remain steadfast,” said Zee Hussain, channel chief and senior vice president, AT&T Partner Solutions. “This year, we are excited to take it to the next level with new and innovative products, enhanced enablement tools and more education to help solution providers boost their business. And because Fusion was such a success last year, we will be continuing our new channel event this year with even bigger entertainment and celebration.”

Fusion by AT&T Partner Solutions will be on November 4-7, in Dallas. Our premier event will feature even more opportunities for partners to learn about AT&T services, hear from industry leaders and network with AT&T executives and peers.

With security being top of mind for any business, last year at Fusion we announced availability of the AlienVaultUnified Security Management™ (USM™) platform through our acquisition of AlienVault. We will continue to ramp our cybersecurity program within our channels through the new AT&T Cybersecurity business division maintaining our focus on solution provider enablement and education to help customers secure their businesses.

Additionally, we recently launched AT&T Fiber Fast across all our channel programs. The new program shortens the time it takes to install AT&T Dedicated Internet at qualified sites in as little as 5 to 15 days¹. AT&T Fiber Fast is available in the Alliance Channel, ACC Business, and Partner Exchange.

AT&T Alliance Channel

The Alliance Channel continues to double down on our commitment to public safety. Last year, we introduced the ability for select solution providers to sell FirstNet services. FirstNet is the nationwide public safety communications platform dedicated to America’s first responders. Now, we are expanding that introduction, giving more solution providers with public safety expertise the opportunity to become a FirstNet dealer. This will help get the game-changing communications capabilities of FirstNet into the hands of first responders throughout the U.S.

Panasonic Corporation of North America is a FirstNet dealer through the Alliance Channel. “The FirstNet communications network is a major advancement to ensuring first responders are equipped with the communications tools they need when it matters most,” said Dominick Passanante, VP, Sales, Panasonic Corporation of North America. “As a leader in the public safety mobility market, we’re proud to be an authorized AT&T member of the FirstNet Dealer Program and we remain committed to supporting customers with the reliable devices and seamless connectivity they need to protect their communities.”

We are also giving our Alliance Channel solution providers another way to support multi-site customers with AT&T SD-WAN NOW. Using software with application-based routing, it gives businesses centralized control of their multiple branch networks helping to improve cost and performance. This competitively priced, streamlined service has robust transport options with AT&T VPN, AT&T Dedicated Internet, Ethernet, Broadband providing connectivity to a customer’s critical and cloud applications.

We’re also doubling down on third-party distribution. Last year, we also announced the new Alliance Channel portal, giving program members improved access to AT&T resources. Now we are giving our solution providers better visibility into their order status. Vista is a new tool within the portal that allows them to access detailed order information such as equipment delivery and service activation confirmations.
