Welcome Pinnacle members! We are excited to introduce an innovative feature to the Broadcom Insights portal that will allow you to take control of your partner profile lists. This new functionality allows our Pinnacle cloud service providers in the Broadcom Advantage Partner program to create and edit their own listings, ensuring you can effectively differentiate your business and attract the right customers.
What is the PARTNER INSIGHTS listing?
Previously, VMware hosted a list of cloud service provider partners for our customers to find their perfect partner based on filters and partner services. We have now migrated this valuable resource to our new home in https://expert.broadcom.com/cloud_svcs. He PARTNERS PERSPECTIVES The listing serves as a customer-facing directory designed to help potential customers find their ideal partners. By offering detailed profiles, you allow cloud service providers like you to highlight your unique strengths and services.
