ControlUp Partners

At ControlUp, we know that strong partnerships are the foundation of success. That’s why we are honored to receive a 5-Star Award in CRN®’s 2025 Partner Program Guide—a recognition of our unwavering commitment to delivering value to our partners. This annual guide highlights the industry’s top technology vendor partner programs, which empower solution providers and drive real business impact.

What Makes a Great Partner Program?

According to CRN, a top-tier partner program delivers real value through financial incentives, sales and marketing support, training, certification, and technical resources that help partners succeed. ControlUp’s Drive DX partner program goes beyond just checking these boxes. Our partner-first approach is about building a thriving ecosystem where our partners can grow, innovate, and win.

Why ControlUp’s Partner Program Stands Out

We recognize that a strong partner base is essential to shaping the future of Digital Employee Experience (DEX). Our partners’ insights, local market knowledge, and deep customer relationships help refine our DEX platform, ensuring IT teams can optimize end-user productivity and satisfaction.

That’s why we are committed to equipping partners with the tools, resources, and support they need to succeed in a competitive landscape. When they succeed, we all move forward together.

The guide provides deep insight into the distinctive value of each partner program so solution providers can make strategic partnership decisions with confidence.”
