Mountain View, Calif. – June 29

Expertus, a provider of learning software and services, announced Tuesday an updated feature set for its ExpertusONE product focused on training channel partners. While discussions of “sales force readiness” and “product readiness” are increasing in frequency, ExpertusONE is a learning platform offering dispersed sales forces a broad range of learning, collaboration and knowledge access tools within a personalized environment.

ExpertusONE for Partner Channels was created for executives responsible for the performance of large, geographically dispersed partner channels, selling complex, rapidly changing products.

“Channel partner relationships are a critical sales component for many companies, yet risking under-performance because of poor training, a lack of knowledge, or lost partner attention has historically been a challenge,” said Ramesh Ramani, founder and CEO of Expertus.
