“Cato’s SASE platform is a perfect fit for M.Tech channel partners and customers seeking robust, affordable solutions for edge SD-WAN, security as service, cloud datacenter integration, and secure remote access,” says Bhavin Bhatt, M. Tech Regional Director for India and the South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC). “Cato’s cloud-based, self-healing architecture is vital for organizations in all markets coping with digital transformation in a post Covid-19 world where edge security, reliability, and performance are keys to success.”

“In a post Covid-19 world, SASE is as critical to businesses as the Internet,” adds Lee.

Cato Enhances Regional Channel Programs

Cato is also beefing up its channel support services in the South Asian region. “We have a great channel program to support strong value-added distributors such as M.Tech India with extensive nationwide coverage and we’re always making improvements,” says Ron Ho, Regional Sales Director for the Asia Pacific region and Japan. “In the coming months, partners can expect to see a much more robust deal registration program and a greater focus on solution providers and MSPs that want to lead with SASE.”

Cato will also introduce a new SASE certification for end customers and technical support accreditation for partners looking to offer technical support services. SASE-accredited partners will be certified to offer Cato SASE tier-1 support while expert-level partners will be able to deliver both tier-1 and tier-2 support. The new training is free but available only to select partners meeting specific training and support requirements in each region.
