Webroot named 2006 emerging technology vendor by CRN Magazine

Webroot Software announced it has been chosen as one of CRN Magazine’s 2006 Emerging Technology Vendors. This annual list captures companies that are delivering high margins for solution providers with innovative and easy-to-use technology that undercuts industry giants.

In less than one year since launching its Channel Edge Partner Program, Webroot’s Spy SweeperTM Enterprise has become well known among solution providers for generating increased profitability while effectively combating spyware threats. The program offers partners an unrivaled lineup of comprehensive training tools, regular webinars, ROI-driven marketing materials and superior technical and sales support.

“Being named by CRN as one of this year’s Emerging Vendors is a great compliment to everyone who has been involved with our channel sales and development,” said C. David Moll, CEO of Webroot Software. “Channel sales are an increasingly critical element of our corporate growth strategy so we have invested significant time and money to develop our channel relationships and continuously prove to our partners just how important they are to our success.”
