Symantec partners jumping ship following Broadcom deal, claims Crowdstrike CEO>
Channel Partner Insight – Tom Wright
CEO Kurtz says Symantec partners are looking for alternatives as Broadcom abandons huge segments of the market

On an earnings call, the chief exec said that partners are flooding away from Symantec due to Broadcom’s strategy, claiming that one partner submitted a list of “several thousand” customers that it wants to migrate to a new vendor.

 “As Broadcom began integrating Symantec, we saw an increase in enquiries among both customers and partners,” Kurtz said. Kurtz was talking as CrowdStrike reported an 89 per cent year-on-year surge in revenue for the quarter ending 31 January 2019, up to $150m.
