CHICAGO, Feb. 05, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Rightpoint, an independent customer experience agency with technology at its core today announced that in addition to seven repeat honorees, John Schneider, Managing Director, Atlanta has been named a Most Valuable Professional (MVP) in the Ambassador category by Sitecore®, the global leader in digital experience management software. John Schneider was one of only 74 ambassadors worldwide to be named a Sitecore MVP this year.
Now in its 13th year, Sitecore’s MVP program recognizes exceptional professionals from the Sitecore community who actively share their expertise of Sitecore products to advance the future of customer experience and drive organizational change. A distinguished group of 315 Sitecore experts from the more than 12,000 certified developers and more than 20,000 active community participants, Sitecore MVPs are awarded for the quality, quantity, and level of impact of the contributions they make by sharing their product expertise and mastery of the Sitecore platform with other Sitecore partners and customers.
“Rightpoint is thrilled to congratulate the new and repeat members of the Sitecore MVP program, including eight members of our team representing almost 30 years of combined Sitecore experience. These types of awards are earned, they are not given,” said Chris Crombie, SVP of Sales and Alliances at Rightpoint. “The recognition is both a testament to our commitment to Sitecore and the commitment we make to our customers. We believe we are delivering some of the most impactful digital marketing, commerce, and strategy-led projects in the entire Sitecore ecosystem. We are a people-first agency and these Sitecore MVPs epitomize the great Sitecore culture that transcends throughout our four walls. I am very proud of these individuals and know that they will provide an incredible service to both Rightpoint clients and the Sitecore community around the world.”
