How To Access
Partner Program Benefits
Platinum Partners
The Talend Alliance Program for System Integrators has
multiple benefits designed to create a mutually beneficial
relationship for both Talend’s partners and Talend. The
following describes how to access and sign up for these
benefits.
Quote for a Press Release
As a Platinum Partner, you may publish a quote from a
Talend executive for your press release that announces
our partnership. To request the quote, please email
partnerprogram@talend.com and the Talend Program
Administration team will help you coordinate this benefit.
You are welcome to suggest a quote but please refrain
from publishing anything until you have received written
approval, and remember that Talend has total discretion
on the content of the quote.

Students OR 80 modules of On-Demand Training

immediate feedback. To sign up for an exam, please
email partnerprogram@talend.com, and we will help
you get registered.
Ten Hours a Quarter for Consulting Services via
LiveExpert
You’ve been trained now, and maybe even certified. But
sometimes questions arise. When you join the Talend
Alliance Program, the main business contact of your
organization will receive an email that tells you how to
access our LiveExpert system. This system allows you
to chat with a Talend expert, who, if necessary, can take
over your screen to help you. This service can be used for
all types of questions, including one-on-one mentoring.
However, it is not meant for customer questions or
projects. Additional consulting hours may be purchased
separately using your partner discounted rates.
Access To Roadmap
Platinum partners have limited access to Talend’s
product roadmap. Please speak with your Channel
Account Manager for current information.
Talend Sales Material and Tools
Sales playbooks, webinars on how to sell specific
Talend products, information on product updates and
other sales and marketing material can all be found
in My Talend, Talend’s partner portal. This confidential
material is constantly updated, and enables you to
promote and sell Talend products to your clients.
Success Stories Published
Joint Business Plan
If you have had a successful project implementation and
would like to promote it, please email partnerprogram@
talend.com and we will work with you to publish and
share your success story.
For certain large accounts, Talend can work with you
to identify areas of convergence, in order to increase
opportunities for both companies. Please speak with
your Channel Account Manager to embark on this
analysis.
Professional Services Augmentation
Often, Talend will bring professional service assignments
to partners. Such assignments are determined by region,
vertical expertise, product expertise, and reputation.
For more information, please speak with your Channel
Account Manager.
Influencer Fee or Market Development Funds for
Lead Generation
Partners who bring new opportunities to Talend can be
rewarded with Market Development Funds or can be
paid an influencer fee. Both policies can be found in
My Talend, Talend’s partner portal. Please read these
policies carefully and if you believe that you are eligible
to participate, please speak with your Channel Account
Manager and he/she will work internally to make sure you
are awarded appropriately.
