Partners Have Spoken: SonicWall Earns Top Honors Across the ASCII Event Series

by Justin Carter

Partner recognition at six ASCII events and a fourth-place finish at the ASCII Cup confirm our commitment to the channel. 

This year, SonicWall sponsored all eight ASCII (GTIA) events across the country. Partners recognized our commitment at six of them with awards. Recently, the final ASCII Edge event in San Antonio, TX hosted the ASCII Cup. Among the top 10 sponsoring vendors, SonicWall placed fourth. 

Awards by Event

  • Costa Mesa: Best Partner Support
  • Dallas: Best Overall Session, Day 2
  • Washington, DC: Best Overall Session, Day 2; Best Partner Involvement; Best in Show
  • Seattle: Best Strategic Takeaway, Day 2; Best Partner Involvement
  • Toronto: Best Partner Involvement
  • San Antonio: Best Overall Session, Day 2

What the Awards Mean

These honors reflect the experience partners had with SonicWall in the room. Recognition for partner support, partner involvement, and session quality shows that our teams delivered practical guidance and strategic value, not only product messaging. Partners drive our success, and their recognition is the most meaningful validation we can receive.
