Expand your business and grow your profits by moving customers to the "paperless office", document workflow, secure email messaging, and e-forms.

"Last night I upgraded a customer to the most current FileHold version. They have over a million documents and 3 applications that are integrated using the API. The upgrade took 2 hours and it was absolutely seamless. Your product continues to provide outstanding functionality and stability. Just a note as upgrades usually do not happen this way." - FileHold partner
Meet the FileHold program partners
FileHold is sold through a successful partner program that is divided into two categories:
Premier document management integrator / Partner reseller
Premier Resellers have been certified by FileHold and can demonstrate and install the software and receive substantial re-seller discounts. Premier partners have made an investment in learning and supporting FileHold. Premier Partners have typically developed a web site that highlights document management solutions and have learned all that is required to complete the sales process from suspect identification, demonstrations, complete installation and ongoing support. For a very small annual fee, Resellers receive a Not For Re-sale (NFR) copy of the FileHold system for their internal document control and for demonstrating to prospective customers. Premier partners provide first level support of the software to their customers and receive discounts on annual support renewals.
To receive a description of the discount structure available to Premier Resellers contact [email protected]. Please provide a brief description of your commitment to marketing, selling and supporting the FileHold product.
Complimentary solutions provider
This complimentary partner program is perfect for companies that want to generate revenue from the sale of a document management system but do not want to make a large investment in marketing, IT infrastructure, training or post implementation support. The program delivers generous commissions and is flexible to meet the needs of large or small companies involved in selling technology solutions. Some of our current partners include:
Document and record management consultants: who advise their clients on best practices in document, and record management as well as other business processes.
Document scanning hardware vendors: who sell document scan and management software or imaging technologies and who have clients that want document management.
Document record storage companies: who specialize in the storage and tracking of physical records and have clients who may want to add electronic document management software to their services.
Consultants: who sell IT infrastructure (servers and storage) and have clients who want to automate document storage or have more specific needs such as contract management.
For Certified Complimentary Solution Providers the sales process is supported by providing a rich array of web based product information, live web demonstrations and "best practice" consulting to qualified prospects. The installation is made easy through our remote install, configuration and support services.
To receive a description of the commission structure available to partners contact [email protected] with an initial description of the opportunity you are pursuing.
