VARs Irked By New Microsoft Customer Satisfaction Policy
,----[ Quote ]
| January is traditionally a time when Microsoft
| (NSDQ:MSFT) Gold partners re-enroll in the
| software giant's partner program. But what is
| normally an uneventful process is taking on
| new significance this year as Microsoft is now
| requiring VARs to take part in customer
| satisfaction surveys in order to stay in the
| program.

| open-source world.
|
| More VARs, software developers and other channel partners are finding that
| open-source solutions present benefits over proprietary software and
| hardware, including better margins and broader opportunities to make money
| from customization and integration services.
