Cisco has officially launched the Cisco 360 Partner Program, a comprehensive redesign developed over 15 months in close collaboration with partners. The program is tailored to help partners deliver transformative AI outcomes faster by providing clearer incentives, designations, tools, and resources. It empowers partners—spanning developers, consultants, managed service providers, resellers, and more—to support customers in building AI-ready data centers, future-proofed workplaces, and digital resilience.
"With our partners, we've strengthened what is already a world-class ecosystem to deliver even greater value and help our mutual customers connect, protect and thrive," said Tim Coogan, Senior Vice President of Global Partner Sales at Cisco.
The Cisco 360 Partner Program recognizes that AI adoption requires expert collaboration to deliver secure, agile infrastructure and services. Cisco’s AI Readiness Index highlights AI readiness as a competitive advantage, and partners play a central role in providing essential capabilities. The program aligns incentives with Cisco’s roadmap, simplifies earnings visibility through CPI, and equips partners with tools to differentiate and scale.
New resources include:
Offers clearer, more predictable earnings across Cisco’s portfolio, with temporary bonuses focused on high-demand areas like Secure AI Infrastructure.
Tailored measurement frameworks for Developers/Advisors, Mass-Scale Infrastructure, and Distributors, with learning paths to boost value and profitability.
Designed to strengthen alignment between Cisco and distributors, driving partner enablement and growth.
Provides an intuitive experience within the Partner Experience Platform (PXP) to help partners work more efficiently and focus on customer value.
"The Cisco 360 Partner Program helps us differentiate based on our expertise. We appreciate that we're measured on the value we bring; that only benefits our mutual customers," said Nicko Roussos, Senior Vice President, Cisco Strategy & Transformation, TD Synnex.
Customers can now use the Cisco Partner Locator to find partners with proven capabilities across key portfolios. Partners benefit from clearer profitability paths, enhanced tools, and recognition for value delivered throughout the customer journey. The program reinforces Cisco’s ecosystem-first approach, enabling partners to scale confidently while helping customers accelerate AI outcomes.
More details are available in the Cisco 360 Partner Program overview and on the dedicated program website. Customers can explore partners using the Partner Locator tool.
