Case Study: Hewlett Packard Enterprise achieves a unified global partner portal and 50% jump in partner adoption with Liferay

HPE Partner Ready Portal revolutionizes partner experiences worldwide

Hewlett Packard Enterprise needed to replace seven aging, geographically fragmented partner portals with a single, modern global entry point capable of supporting complex roles across roughly 650,000 users and 170,000 partner organizations in 174 countries and 24 languages, while securely managing content from 3,000 worldwide owners.

HPE deployed a Liferay‑based Partner Ready Portal (live in 11 months) that consolidated tools, offered single sign‑on, granular permissioning, customizable dashboards and mobile access. The portal drove a 50% jump in partner adoption in 2015, high repeat engagement (about 70% returning multiple times a day, 85% multiple times a week), and spawned additional cloned portals after company changes—streamlining partner workflows and global access.
