Quest Honored with Channel Partners 360° Award

Channel Partners magazine, which focuses on the communications industry's indirect sales channel, is pleased to announce that Quest has been selected as a winner of the inaugural Channel Partners 360° Awards.

Twenty-five winners were honored during an awards ceremony on Feb. 27 at the Spring 2013 Channel Partners Conference & Expo in Las Vegas. These winners will be featured in Channel Partners' March digital issue, May/June print issue as well as an Immersion Center at www.channelpartnersonline.com/360. The 2013 program was underwritten by AT&T (News - Alert).

"Unlike other programs that honor size and sales, the Channel Partners 360° Awards recognizes channel partners who are taking a holistic approach to delivering technology solutions that create business value for their customers," said Khali Henderson, Editor-in-Chief of Channel Partners. "We are pleased that our first honorees include an outstanding group of solutions providers."

"As a technology provider determined to focus on unequaled customer service, Quest has never wavered from a set of core values that enable it to deliver consistently high-quality, full-service technology consulting and management," stated Quest President and CEO Tim Burke. "With over 30 years of experience, we have found a way to distill our company's values into a simple, game-changing question that we pose to every customer: How can we help "

"How Quest helps revolves around five tenets that define what it really means to be a trusted advisor as we go to market with our partners," continues Technology Partner Program Director Adam Burke. "Listen to customers to understand their strategy, goals, expectations, and constraints; Respond to each customer's needs with support and guidance - and on their terms; Always provide superior technical and management skills; Regard every customer engagement as part of a long-term relationship - and; neve forget: Each customer is unique, so each engagement must be specifically designed for them."

To determine the winner of Channel Partners 360°, companies created a "Partner Profile" that detailed how the applicant addresses the convergence of IT and telecom services and how the company creates business value for its customers. Channel Partners editors and an expert panel evaluated all Partner Profiles to determine the top 25 candidates that exemplify the Channel Partners 360° values.
