Microsoft is offering small businesses promotions for free software trials and business tools as long as they are willing to ensure that they are running genuine copies of Windows.
At its Small Business Summit Monday, Microsoft said that small businesses that take part in the WGA program can receive a seven-day free trial of business credit-report checks and a six-month trial of Microsoft Office OneNote 2003.
Microsoft is offering the credit-report service through a Credit.net service that lets businesses quickly check the credit of vendors they are looking to do business with, the company said. Microsoft Office OneNote 2003 is note-taking software that includes a voice-recording function so users can ensure they take accurate meeting notes.
