Tanium Gears Up to Showcase the Strength of Partnering

Tanium’s Partner Ecosystem is truly integral to our business. Tanium partners share our commitment to customer success, accelerate time to value, boost ROI by providing superior deployment and integration capabilities, offer innovative managed service offerings, and simply deliver better customer outcomes powered by Tanium technologies.

Partners will be top of mind at Converge 2024, our annual conference that kicks off on November 18 at the Orlando World Center Marriott. Each year, the event brings together IT operations and security professionals from around the globe for four days of engaging keynotes, informative breakout sessions, technical hands-on labs, and certification opportunities.

Converge is our marquee event of the year and a great chance for partners to gain an insider view of our Autonomous Endpoint Management (AEM) roadmap, exciting new joint solutions with best-in-class complementary platform partners, and hands-on lab experiences to see the latest product releases in action. There’s no better opportunity to hear directly from customers, peers, and Tanium experts about the innovative solutions and business outcomes we are driving together in the market.

This will be my second year hosting our partners, and my interactions with them last fall were truly inspiring. I look forward to this year’s event in sunny Orlando near “The most magical place on Earth.”

At last year’s event in Austin, I had the opportunity to meet many of our strategic partners who made the personal investment to participate in person to share their feedback on what’s working and where we can improve. My team is preparing for the event, and we’re excited to share the latest investments and programs reflecting the company’s commitment to the strategic role our Partner Ecosystem plays in our next stage of growth.

What to expect from Converge 2024

At Converge, we ensure our partners are integrated throughout the week’s agenda. Once again, we’re kicking off our week-long event with an invitation-only Global Partner Summit open to any partner attending in person. 2024 Summit attendees will get to hear from Tanium’s leadership team and product experts regarding the launch of Tanium AEM, industry trends, go-to-market strategies and resources, services opportunities, and much more.

New for this year’s Summit will be interactive workshops following the morning session featuring Business and Technical tracks depending on the needs of the partner attendee. The deep dive technical breakout session will include updates to the Partner Services Verification Program and chances for partners to become Tanium-verified services partners right onsite.

All Converge attendees are encouraged to stop by the Partner Pavilion to check out the sponsor booths and learn about all the great services and solutions they offer. A special thank you to the who’s who of industry-leading key partners that have already signed on as Converge sponsors, including AHEAD, Avanade, Carahsoft, CDW, Chuco, Climb/Radius, EY, Forescout, Microsoft, Novacoast, Optiv, PwC, ScreenMeet, ServiceNow, SHI, and True Zero Technologies.

Lastly, I couldn’t be more excited to attend one of the myriad of joint customer and partner breakouts where real-world use cases and best practices from around the globe and across industries will be presented. I’m always awed by the creativity and actionable insights that are shared by those on the front lines during those sessions.

Annual partner recognition

I’m excited to have a chance to announce once again the winners of our Global Partner Awards. Celebrating stellar performance and highlighting partners from around the world, the awards allow us to recognize partners who leverage our platform in unique ways to meet evolving end-user demands. From solving complex business challenges to establishing creative go-to-market strategies, we’ll celebrate the innovation and those partners that are driving expansion into new markets and customer segments.

Partner program evolution and benefits

Earlier this year, Tanium implemented changes to the Tanium Partner Advantage Program that helped drive investment and greater profitability for those partners investing in growing their Tanium practice. We’ve already seen positive results from these changes, including growth in Partner-sourced new customer revenue and market expansion.

We are thrilled by the feedback from partners participating in our newly launched Verified Services program and the growth of corresponding certifications for partner engineers and service delivery staff. This November, we’ll give partners a sneak peek into changes coming in 2025 based on partner feedback and an analysis of the drivers of success this year.

Hands-on Labs and onsite certifications

Each Converge event is an immersive experience, and I hope our partner technical leads will take advantage of our onsite, proctored certification opportunities. In addition, you can take part in our in-person or on-demand virtual technical labs, which offer hands-on, guided experiences with our latest products.

Attend in-person or virtually

For those who find it difficult to get out of the office, there is a virtual attendee option giving access to live-streamed keynotes and on-demand content after the conference. Please note that the Global Partner Summit and breakouts will not be streamed live. However, the recordings will be made available on-demand following Converge through our Partner Portal.

I encourage all our partners to join Tanium Converge 2024 and I hope to greet you personally at one of the numerous Partner-only receptions or in one-on-one meetings as we finish the year strong and lay the groundwork for 2025!
