Solution Partner Program & Technology Partner Program: what is the difference?

Last updated: Aug 12, 2024

The Solution Partner Program has a focus on services and consulting firms. Adobe Technology Partners build applications that integrate Adobe products or that run on the Adobe Experience Platform. Adobe Technology Partners distribute applications through the Adobe Exchange Marketplace

Some Technology Partners also have a services or consulting business, and in those cases, they might want to also join the Adobe Solution Partner Program. Below are a few details to keep in mind if you would like to join both programs. 

  • The programs have separate portals, and you need to register for each program. Note: You can use the same email address and the same Adobe ID for each program login. You can be a member of both programs, if your company is a fit for both, and your registration for each program is approved.

There are also Solution Partner Program benefits that are available to Technology Partners:

  • Technology Partners that have paid for partnership at the Silver level or above can participate in the Solution Partner Program at the Bronze level for no fee (see the Bronze benefits here). Simply register into the Solution Partner Program and then once registered email SPPHelp@adobe.com to let them know your partner level in Technology Partner Program, they will verify and reach out if there are any questions. 
    • Benefits of Bronze partnership in SPP include:
      • Full access to on-demand training
      • Deal Registration with financial benefits
      • Partner Directory listing
      • Three certification vouchers
  • Technology partners can also register for events in the Solution Partner Portal with their Technology Partner ID. Events are shown in the event calendar.
