IBM Partner Engagement Manager with Pragma Accelerator
Partner Engagement Manager offers differentiating approaches to how companies collaborate and manage their partner relationships including on-boarding and self-service capabilities. The Partner profile and technical requirements data that is captured is managed independently of the applications that consume it. This eliminates the redundancy of having to on-board a partner across multiple applications, reduces the costs to manage on-boarding processes and leads to faster time-to-revenue from the relationship.
