The Exterro Partner Network: We’re Changing the Game for Our Partner Ecosystem

As we announce the Exterro Partner Network (ExPN) today, I find myself reflecting on the conversations that led to this milestone. One of my earliest discussions with the leadership team at Exterro was centered around the company’s mission to empower the legal and security partner ecosystem with smarter, more efficient ways to create outcomes around e-discovery, data governance, data risks, and incident response. It was clear from the start that Exterro’s success wasn’t just about its innovative technology—it was equally about unlocking the ecosystem of partners to amplify the impact of that technology for the best customer outcomes.

I recall thinking, “There’s so much potential here to build something truly transformative for our partners, and customers.” I went back to the team with a vision for a partner ecosystem that would be a win-win-win for everyone involved: for Exterro, for partners, and for our mutual customers. 

The Exterro Partner Network provides customers with invaluable access to trusted advisors and a diverse array of resources, enabling them to tackle their most pressing challenges in legal operations, data governance, digital forensics, and incident response. With personalized guidance from industry experts, customers can receive tailored solutions that align with their unique needs and proactively manage risks, ensuring they stay ahead of evolving regulatory requirements. The program offers comprehensive, integrated solutions that streamline operations and enhance efficiency, allowing organizations to adopt new technologies with confidence while fostering collaboration between legal, IT, and security teams. Ultimately, customers can navigate complexities with greater ease, achieve accelerated digital transformation, and secure a competitive advantage in their respective markets.

Partners operating with technology point solutions can very well solve today's problems for their customers, but tomorrow's require another technology solution, and another, and another, compounding the difficulty of managing risk. With ExPN, solving today's data challenge sets customers up to solve tomorrow's challenges, as well, in the same, unified technology platform.

For partners, ExPN presents a unique opportunity to expand their offerings and deepen client relationships by integrating Exterro’s industry-leading solutions into their portfolios. But they’re not just adding another point solution to their kit; they’re unlocking a straightforward path to deeper relationships with their customers and future revenue. Today, this collaboration enables partners to provide differentiated, value-added services that address critical areas such as e-discovery, incident response, and data governance, unlocking new revenue streams and access to a broader client base. But tomorrow, they have a head start in solving additional customer challenges, building on the foundation of the Exterro data risk management platform.

The program fosters meaningful conversations with clients, allowing partners to position themselves as trusted advisors and drive strategic engagement around essential industry topics. They’re not pigeon-holed into a narrow slice of the business; they can expand and  build stronger, more collaborative relationships with their clients, delivering more value and ensuring their long-term success in an increasingly competitive landscape.

And today, that vision becomes a reality as we officially launch the Exterro Partner Network!

Why This Program Matters

You might be asking, “What’s so special about the Exterro Partner Network?”

What sets this program apart is the Exterro Data Risk Management Platform. This transformative software suite addresses customer needs across e-discovery, data privacy, information governance, and digital forensics and incident response–and it allows them to do so in a single software suite, eliminating the risks associated with data transfers in complex tech stacks that span cloud, on-prem, and hybrid environments. Exterro partners can offer their customers an end-to-end, all in one solution that bridges the gap between legal, governance, and security teams,helping them work smarter and more collaboratively.

But the Exterro advantage is more than just the ability to solve multiple data challenges in a single technology suite. Exterro Intelligence, our proprietary AI, accelerates workflows and provides deep insight into data, while ensuring customer data remains secure. The visibility and insight Exterro provides ensures customers have unprecedented control over their data, allowing them to make informed decisions and take appropriate protective measures. The Exterro platform is trusted by over 3,000 customers already, and has received third party security certifications including FedRAMP, SOC 2, HiTrust e1, and TiSAX.  

And Why Launch ExPN Now?

The timing couldn’t be more critical.

Additionally, as technology advances, the lines between legal, security, and IT functions continue to blur, creating a demand for integrated solutions and partnerships that can address these challenges holistically.
