In the fast-paced world of IT services, companies often grapple with the challenges of pre-sales availability, skill mismatches, project delivery constraints and the ever-evolving market demands. Furthermore, investing in building new capabilities is expensive and often results in partners sticking to their knitting. These challenges hinder growth and limit the ability to deliver timely, effective solutions for clients, ultimately resulting in loss of business – typically to a competitor.
The Insentra Difference
Insentra distinguishes itself in the IT services industry with its 100% channel only business model. We emphasize collaboration over competition, meaning we never transact commercially with our partners’ clients. Instead, our mission is to become or augment our partners’ capabilities, empowering them to offer a broader range of specialized services to their clients. Our partners can say ‘yes’ to more of their client’s requirements. We refrain from transacting any major vendor products, ensuring our partners retain their margins, rebates and perks while achieving prestigious status within their networks.
With complimentary pre-sales support for our partners, we undertake fixed cost projects where we take on the risk. Where required and appropriate, we also complete work on a time and materials basis. In addition to our Advisory and Professional Services, we provide our partners and their clients with access to a comprehensive suite of Managed Services through our global 24×7 follow-the-sun model, ensuring continuous monitoring and support.
At Insentra, we are truly PartnerObsessed™ and our commitment to long-term partnerships is unwavering.
