Predictable ROI on your partnership investment

We have a clear, defined ICP and a high win rate within it. We know where we can win together. 

dotCMS works with compliance-led industries — manufacturing, healthcare, financial services, and telecommunications — where governance and security is a non-starter. We have a defined market we serve, the high-end of the mid-market and select enterprise customers. They have a desire to modernize and value a proven, multi-site CMS.  

Our unique focus helps build a meaningful GTM plan, pursue prospects we can win and demonstrate real ROI from the partnership. 

A real partnership is a two-way street

A real partnership is a two-way street

We have been intentional about how we grow our network. We build an intentional number of relationships across enterprise, core, community, technology, and regional partners, and we invest properly in each one. 

Partnership only works if opportunity flows both ways. We ask partners to work with us on new business pursuits, share leads, invest in co-marketing, and engage in account mapping.

How to Become a Partner - The Partner Journey

A two-hour investment could add 10% to your bottom line.

Becoming a dotCMS partner starts with about two hours of your time, spread across a few short conversations. In that time we work out whether there is real overlap between your client base and ours, whether your team has the skills to deliver on our platform, and whether the commercial upside is worth both our while. If the answer is yes, most partners move from first conversation to signed agreement inside four to six weeks.

Discovery call

Capabilities Exchange
