SoftwareOne has confirmed that it continues as a VMware by Broadcom Pinnacle Partner, the highest tier in the VMware partner program.
Following Broadcom’s restructuring of the VMware business and partner ecosystem, the partner status designation now applies to a select group of partners with demonstrated scale, expertise, and strategic alignment.
“VMware customers are navigating a period of significant change,” said SoftwareOne chief partner and sales officer Gudmundur Adalsteinsson. “Our continued Pinnacle Partner status reflects long‑standing VMware expertise and enables us to support customers with continuity and clarity as they manage licensing transitions and make informed decisions about their private cloud environments.
“Recent changes to the VMware partner landscape have introduced new complexity for customers, particularly around licensing models, renewals, and long‑term private cloud strategy. As a VMware by Broadcom Pinnacle Partner in Europe, Middle East, and Africa, we work directly with Broadcom, providing customers with prioritised access, licensing expertise, and technical support across VMware-based private Cloud offerings.”
SoftwareOne supports organisations globally affected by changes to the VMware partner ecosystem, including customers whose existing partners can no longer transact or provide renewal support.
