Hundreds of channel programs graced the ballot for Top Channel Programs of 2009, but only these 50 programs made the cut. As voted by members of the indirect channel, these carriers, service providers, resellers and master agents deserve recognition for having standout support for their channel partners. Whether because of ease of business, quick quoting, responsiveness, extra support, higher commissions or better spiffs, these leading programs have impressed agents, and others in the channel community as well.
PHONE+ is proud to honor these Top 50 Channel Programs for receiving the most votes in the 2009 Top Channel Program poll. We encourage agents to research and consider these companies applauded by their peers – and we encourage those companies whose programs are not listed here to step up their partner efforts in order to make an appearance in the ranks in 2010!
