Unprecedented Incentives

Most attractive to new and existing solution providers is the unprecedented profit sharing potential associated with every AppDynamics customer deal. The enhanced compensation structure provides solution partners with the margin off of the net price to the customer.

Partners are critical to the overall success of AppDynamics as the APM industry continues to grow at a rapid pace.
