THE COMMON PLATFORM FOR YOUR CHANNEL BUSINESS.

CHANNELOS

Business channels are complex ecosystems. Most players within your industry are interconnected and often collaborate and compete at the same time. However, only some of them contribute to your success. The way you manage and enable your partners is a key business differentiator but there are programs and incentives expected from you, that you cannot afford to miss. The question is: How can you comply with expected standards and differentiate yourself at the same time?

You need a digital platform to run your channel business that gives you all the expected options and the flexibility to tailor them to your brands and business model. A quick, agile platform that doesn't require hours of professional services to work effectively. And you don't want to pay for all the features you could use but you are not using (yet).

The platform you need is ChannelOS, the first solution that enables true end-to-end Channel 4.0. The 7 apps we ship with ChannelOS give you rich functionality and purpose-driven flexibility. And you can scale your channel platform as you scale your channel business.

ChannelOS brings Pay-Per-Use. While all functions are available, you pay only for the ones you use, during the months when they are actually used. This gives you the most flexible, affordable solution with a clearly determined return on investment.

ChannelOS enables Channel 4.0

Everyone is talking about Digital Transformation and Industry 4.0; How it makes your company more agile and ready to compete in today's fast-pased world. Now ChannelXperts brings that level of transformation to your channel sales and marketing. Not just a legacy PRM, but an operating system that, with the applications that are right for you, cover the entire spectrum of your channel sales and marketing needs. It's your one, agile, flexible end-to-end solution.

We built ChannelOS from the ground up to be the most comprehensive suite of software for every aspect of a channel ecosystem. The common underpinnings in the platform enables high customizability.

“ChannelXperts continues to innovate with its new PRM offering, ChannelOS. In addition to its bellwether administration capabilities and significant UI enhancements, ChannelOS sports the ability to support cloud partners, with its new Cloud Services Automation to provision and deliver SaaS products.”

Beyond just co-branded material, our content syndication feature allows partners to have a dynamically updated widget on their website that will display your latest news, events, and offers. Don't want all your partners to have the same information? You can also segment this information for a given duration by any segment you choose.

The best way to make sure your partners know the product is to enable continuing education with your own training and certifications. Provide a training calendar and make in-house training materials available for download. Do you use your own LMS? Then integrate it into ChannelOS and your partners can access it without media discontinuity.

Provide Training plans and documents

Get your partners in shape! Help them to be successful in selling your solutions by giving them access to webinars and on-site trainings as well as to presentations, documentation and links to your e-Learing offerings.

Integrate your own LMS

If you are using an LMS to educate your partners, use our interfaces we provide for all legacy Learning Managnement Systems. Therefore your partners will not need to jump from one application into another but can access all trainings and certifications via ChannelOS.
