For years, most viewed software development as one of the loneliest careers a person could have. They had visions of developers sitting alone in a basement surrounded by monitors. 

Ironically, the COVID-19 pandemic has taught us all that just because you are physically alone surrounded by computer monitors does not mean you are completely alone- there are many ways to interact virtually.

One of the best ways to do this is through programs like The Vercel Agency Partner Program and Experts Marketplace. In layman’s terms, it is a community of tech leaders that work together to quicken frontend developers’ ability to improve end users’ web experiences. More specifically, members of the program share and adopt best practices from the start, rather than finding them through trial and error.

The community includes more than 500,000 developers, including those developers at top companies such as Airbnb, TripAdvisor, and The Washington Post. By using the Versal network, teams receive access to thousands of the most talented developer minds in the world.

When asked about the program, Arnaud Tanielian, Technology Director at Work & Co, said, 

“The platform is future-facing, frequently releasing top-notch features and reflecting modern best practices — providing a solid multi-cloud strategy. It allows developers to fully focus on both integrating data and building a performant, responsive interface.”

Similarly, Yashar Rassoulli, CTO of Myplanet, said, 

“It saves us time, hassle, and money compared to building our own CI/CD pipeline for each client using cloud IaaS...We don’t have to worry about setting up environments, testing branches, integrating Git, integrating CDN, coordinating geographical redundancy, ensuring scalability, or any of the other countless tasks required to deploy enterprise applications at scale.”

Beyond those noted above, other benefits include: 

• Direct lines of communication to Vercel experts
• Special pricing for analytics and support
• Access to co-marketing support
• Lead generation and new business opportunities
• Always-current product insights and training

Vercel CEO Guillermo Rauch noted, “Together, we are committed to excellence in platform and service delivery, and this helps ensure that we consistently deliver on the same strong values and mission — to build a better web, together.”
