Hitting major Specializations milestone highlights partner expertise
Adobe Solution Partners earn 400 Specializations!
The Adobe Solution Partner Program is pleased to congratulate our Solution Partners for collectively earning 400 Specializations! It’s a major milestone for our partners, the Solution Partner Program, and Adobe. We’re celebrating by showcasing some of the partners who contributed to this milestone by highlighting them here and on our social channels, including LinkedIn.
Why is this such an important milestone? Simply enough, more specializations means more partner expertise, a healthy growing partner ecosystem, and that customers have a large group of partners they can trust to solve business problems with Adobe solutions. It’s valuable to both partners and customers — and Adobe.
What is the value of a Specialization?
An Adobe Specialization requires a partner to invest in gaining deep knowledge and broad experience in an Adobe solution. A partner’s potential customers understand that when a partner has earned a Specialization, Adobe validates that they have consistently helped clients succeed with a given Adobe solution. Beyond Adobe validation, a Specialization benefits partners by differentiating them from others in their market, providing visual recognition in their Partner Directory listing, giving them a badge to post on their website or use in marketing efforts, and the ability to engage technical expertise from Adobe in delivery assurance.
Why does a Specialization differentiate a partner?
Earning a Specialization for an Adobe solution is a rigorous process, which is why potential clients who need help with their important projects and initiatives gravitate toward engaging partners with one or more Specializations. Partners must have a certain number of consultants with Expert and Master certifications in the Adobe solution, the partner must meet or exceed customer expectations when implementing the solution, and at least two customers must submit references to Adobe each time they renew, confirming their high satisfaction with the partner’s services with the solution.
Here’s what Specialized Partners are saying
We reached out to hear from the many Adobe partners who contributed toward meeting this milestone about the value of Specializations to their practice. Here’s what they shared:
