AWS Partner Central Now Shows How Solution Matching Engine Performs for You!

Hi, it's Shii-chan! I've got good news today for AWS Partners.

AWS What's New aws.amazon.com

What was announced?

According to AWS What's New, Partner Analytics in AWS Partner Central now has a "Solution Matching Engine performance" section.

It shows how the Solution Matching Engine (SME) performs for your company and your AWS Marketplace listings.

Why it matters

SME recommends partner solutions to AWS sellers, so it is an entry point for co-sell. Until now it was hard to see how much SME actually contributed to your pipeline. Now you can check that contribution right in the analytics.

What changes

Partners can assess their visibility with numbers and decide where to improve their listings and opportunity information.

Dive Deep

Here is what you can see in the section:

  • Recommendations
  • SME-attributed opportunities
  • Your share of AWS-originated opportunities
  • Stall rate
  • Pipeline attributed to SME

You can also explore the data:

  • Filter by recommendation type or AWS Marketplace listing
  • View top customer profiles by Region, industry, and segment

You can find it on the Opportunity pipeline analysis page under Partner Analytics in AWS Partner Central. All partners eligible for APN Customer Engagements (ACE) can use it.

Wrap-up

  • Partner Analytics gets an SME performance section
  • See recommendations, SME-attributed opportunities, stall rate, and pipeline
  • Drill down by listing, or by Region, industry, and segment
  • Available to ACE-eligible partners

If you list on AWS Marketplace and want to grow co-sell, this update is for you!
