Kickfire - Analytics Appliances to Accelerate Business Intelligence Services

Benefits in a Nutshell

• Meet your customers' needs for high performance analytics
• Easily integrated into your existing application architectures
• Profit from Kickfire's flexible, no-nonsense partnering approach

You've always delivered best-in-class business applications to your customers but, in today's uncharted business territory, they need - and want - more. They need the ability to develop their own reporting and adhoc queries and they want lightning fast performance. And, of course, they want both for the lowest possible price.

To meet your customers' wants and needs, you need a flexible, powerful analytic platform with unbeatable price-performance. You need Kickfire, the highest price performance solution in the data warehousing industry with prices starting at $32,000 for a production class system that can be quickly integrated into your overall solution architecture.

Just as you need us, we need you too. In order to deliver end-to-end solutions, Kickfire needs systems integrators who understand customers' business and technical needs and can architect best-in-class data warehousing solutions to meet these needs. That's why we developed the Kickstart for Integrators program - a partner program to get you access to our products and working with us to sell joint solutions as quickly as possible.

What's more, we're flexible and common-sense. You won't find yourself boxed in by a business model that focuses on what you can't do and you won't find yourself locked in turf battles with a direct sales team focused on winning the deal for themselves at all costs.

The Kickstart for Integrators program enables us to partner together in co-sell, resell and VAR models depending on what makes sense in a specific customer situation. For example, a co-sell model makes sense where we find a company that needs a custom data warehousing solution but a resell model makes better sense where you find a company that wants a single source appliance based solution.

Kickfire's program is structured to enable you to get up-to-speed with our product and partnered with our sales and marketing teams as quickly as possible. No crazy program levels and minimum sales commitment, just a business based partnership based on strong alignment and mutual commitment.
