Channel partners

Sell identity resilience services with Butterfly.

Butterfly gives Okta-focused partners a recovery-first offer: backup, restore previews, SSO/SCIM setup, Workflows recovery, restore drills, and audit evidence customers can actually show.

Partner motions

Four ways partners can sell through Butterfly.

Referral partner

Okta consultants, auditors, incident-response firms, and advisors who spot recovery gaps but do not want to own delivery.

Economics: Registered opportunities qualify for a referral fee after the first paid customer agreement closes.

First step: Register the customer context in the guided request with Okta org size, urgency, and buyer.

Reseller / VAR

Identity and security resellers that already package Okta, IAM, compliance, or cyber-resilience solutions.

Economics: Discounted resale pricing is scoped by annual commitment, customer segment, support model, and renewal ownership.

First step: Request a resale packet, sample quote, partner FAQ, and lead-registration workflow.

Implementation partner

System integrators and Okta implementation teams that want a repeatable disaster-recovery add-on.

Economics: Partners can resell Butterfly services or deliver approved runbooks after enablement, with implementation boundaries agreed up front.

First step: Start with one supervised Okta DR Readiness Assessment or restore drill.

MSP / MSSP

Managed service providers responsible for recurring customer health checks, evidence packs, and incident response.

Economics: Wholesale pricing is available for managed customer bundles with monthly reporting and quarterly restore drills.

First step: Scope the managed-customer bundle, reporting cadence, escalation path, and proof artifacts.

Pricing shape

Start with fixed-scope packages.

Software subscription pricing stays plan-based. Channel services are packaged so partners can quote cleanly, attach work to Okta projects, and preserve margin without inventing scope every time.

Okta DR Readiness Assessment

Partner list starts at $4.5k

One-week assessment covering backup coverage, restore readiness, SSO/SCIM posture, Workflows dependencies, and evidence gaps.

Backup + Restore Implementation

Partner list starts at $7.5k

Install Butterfly from the Okta Integration Network, configure schedules, validate coverage, and capture restore-preview evidence.

SSO + SCIM Setup

Partner list starts at $3.5k

Configure SAML or OIDC SSO plus SCIM 2.0 provisioning, assignment flows, deprovisioning behavior, and administrator access controls.

Restore Drill + Audit Pack

Partner list starts at $5k

Run a tabletop or controlled technical drill with before/after evidence, dry-run output, audit logs, and executive summary.

Final partner pricing depends on customer size, environments, access constraints, delivery owner, support model, and annual commitment. No partner status with Okta is implied by this page.

Marketing plays

Campaigns partners can run this quarter.

Audit readiness campaign

Lead with proof for SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI DSS, NIST, ISO 27001, and CIS Controls teams that need recovery evidence before renewal or audit.

Okta implementation add-on

Attach Butterfly to new Okta deployments as the recovery, rollback, evidence, and restore-drill layer after baseline SSO/MFA/LCM work.

Incident-response retainer

Bundle monthly backup schedule checks, quarterly restore drills, readiness reporting, and escalation support for identity-impacting incidents.

Workflows continuity review

Help customers identify Okta Workflows automations that move users, groups, or access decisions and would be painful to rebuild under pressure.

Butterfly ↔ partner communication

One async record for every partner motion.

Communication between Butterfly and partners should be guided, evidence-based, and repeatable. The request record becomes the starting packet; follow-on updates use the same structure so sales, delivery, certification, and managed-service motions stay aligned.

1. Submit the packet

Use the guided request as the Butterfly ↔ partner communication record: motion, customer domain, scope, evidence links, owner, and requested next step.

2. Keep the thread async

Use the same guided request path for updates, scope changes, pilot context, capstone artifacts, or deal-registration changes so the record stays auditable.

3. Continue with assets

The submitter can keep moving through public docs, demo, service catalog, trust artifacts, and capstone prep without waiting for a person.

4. Gate authority separately

Reseller rights, certification badges, discounts, production access, and customer-change authority still require written terms and evidence.

Guided request

Start a channel partner request.

Register a lead, request reseller/VAR routing, start implementation-partner prep, or scope an MSP/MSSP bundle through one guided request without waiting for a manual partner-desk email thread.

Keep moving now

Submit the form, then continue immediately with motion-specific assets. A person is not required for routing, first proof steps, docs, demo, trust artifacts, package review, or capstone prep.

Communication packet

Treat this as the first Butterfly ↔ partner message. Add customer domain, motion, requested next step, owner, and links to evidence or capstone artifacts in the notes field. Use the same guided request path for follow-up updates.

This creates the routing and communication record, then unlocks the next guided path. Contractual status changes - reseller status, certification badges, production access, discounts, or customer-change authority - still need written terms and evidence.

Guided partner desk

Register a lead or start the channel packet now.

Include the customer domain, Okta org size, problem statement, timeline, preferred partner motion, and whether the opportunity needs software, implementation help, managed service, or all of the above.
