Microsoft partners merge for midmarket critical mass
InfoWorld | at | by Mike
Two Microsoft channel partners said Tuesday they will merge to form a new company that will be among Microsoft's largest global partners serving midmarket business applications customers.
As Microsoft looks to its Business Solutions group to propel it into the ERP market, partnerships are a critical aspect of its growth plans. Business applications software requires more customization and services support than the products that are Microsoft's flagships, its operating system and desktop applications software.
