SolarWinds recognizes ATS Network Management with  EMEA Partner Award for Excellence in Marketing

Johannesburg, South Africa – February 5, 2026 – ATS Network Management today announced it has received the EMEA SolarWinds Partner Award for Excellence in Marketing at the 2026 SolarWinds Partner Summit, recognizing its leadership in building a structured, partner-led SolarWinds ecosystem across Africa. 

The award aligns closely with ATS Network Management’s Africare Program, a long-term continental expansion strategy designed to enable trusted channel partners across more than 25 African countries.

“While ATS Network Management is headquartered in South Africa, our strategy is pan-African,” said Glenn Lazarus, CEO of ATS Network Management. “Africare is about consistency, capability, and sustainable impact — empowering partners across Africa to deliver measurable customer outcomes using SolarWinds’ observability and management solutions.”

As part of this continued investment, ATS Network Management is excited to roll out the enhanced partner tiering program in the coming year, aimed at delivering greater value, stronger alignment, and deeper engagement with its most committed and values-aligned partners across the region.

Through the SolarWinds Partner Program, ATS Network Management leverages AI-enabled observability, comprehensive partner enablement, and aligned go-to-market frameworks to support customers operating in diverse, resource-constrained, and rapidly evolving IT environments.

“We are thrilled to recognize ATS Network Management for their outstanding achievements,” said Barb Huelskamp, Vice President of Global Channel Sales and Alliances at SolarWinds. “Their structured, partner-first approach across Africa highlights the impact of strong alignment and execution in driving customer success at scale.”

ATS Network Management remains committed to expanding the Africare Program, deepening collaboration with SolarWinds and regional partners, and helping organizations across Africa achieve greater visibility, resilience, and operational confidence.
