Computer maker Dell said that it would remain committed to commercial channel partners worldwide and announced further enhancements to its PartnerDirect programme to media and analysts on Friday.

Dell Global Commercial Channels vice president and general manager Greg Davis said, today, customers are looking beyond the box.
"That’s why we remain dedicated to building a world-class channel program and investing in solutions that meet the dynamic needs of our customers," he added.
Along with its partners, Dell has been delivering end-to-end IT offerings that would cater to meet the needs and challenges of today’s businesses. There are around 100,000 value added resellers (VARs), systems integrators, IT resellers and solutions providers who are now a part of Dell’s global PartnerDirect programme.
It had a 58,000 deal registrations in the third quarter of 2011. Revenue from the PartnerDirect programme was reportedly more than 30% of Dell’s global commercial revenue for the same period.

KACE products in five new languages this year.
