The Arista Partner Program, targeted at Resellers and Systems Integrators, is designed to engage and reward partners who provide value add services and extend Arista's reach into the marketplace. The program requirements reflect our commitment to enable our partners to deliver solutions to our mutual customers and, in turn, drive higher customer satisfaction.
The Arista Partner Program is a value-based program with focus on our partners' profitability and success. The requirements are designed to assure customer success while eliminating unnecessary burden on our partners. The Arista Partner Program has two levels (Elite and Authorized) to reflect investment in the Arista line and capabilities to deliver Arista solutions to customers. To become a partner you will start first as an Authorized Partner by registering on the "Become a Partner" drop-down alternative (found under the Partner tab) on the Arista website. Upon completion of the required training and certification of your staff, you can graduate to the Elite Partner level (note--Elite requires joint investments and entry is by invitation).
The Arista Partner Program was designed with 2 levels. You decide the level of participation that is most appropriate for your business to attain the highest return based on your investment.
