Microsoft Business Solutions VAR/Partner Selection – overview for IT Director/Manager/Controller
by: Andrew Karasev
Microsoft Great Plains and Microsoft CRM become more and more popular, partly because of Microsoft muscles behind them. Now Great Plains is targeted to the whole spectrum of horizontal and vertical market clientele. Small companies use Small Business Manager (which is based on the same technology – Great Plains Dexterity dictionary and runtime), Great Plains Standard on MSDE is for small to midsize clients, and then Great Plains serves the rest of the market up to big corporations. Microsoft CRM is extremely scalable and fits to all the market niches.
It is always good idea to install everything on your own - however Great Plains requires combination of computer networking, some programming, good accounting/distribution/logistics/reporting background - so it is not a surprise that Microsoft Business Solutions requires their customers to have specially assigner Microsoft Great Plains Partner/VAR/Reseller to serve the account.
If you are IT Director/Controller who has the dilemma of proper partner selection – read this and you will have the clues on where to look further.
1. Local partners - if you are in the remote area - there is often seen the opinion that local partner is the best choice. Consider this however as a contra argument - local partners maybe tiny with one/few consultants and they may not serve you adequately when you have somewhat complex - such as Manufacturing, complex Project Accounting needs, integration with UNIX-based legacy system, etc.
2. Mid-Size partners in Major Business Metros – these companies were classical Great Plains VARS/Resellers with balanced application consulting and technical expertise. Please, consider these points, however: in recent recession most of such partners were bought or merged with big auditing companies and lost their flexibility, plus their consulting fee went up due to the fact of belonging to big conglomerates.
3. Nation-wide partners with local representative offices. This maybe a very good option, if you need kind of reliability and complete expertise - missing parts could be taken from different location with this specialization. However the hourly rates are probably the highest among the first three.
4. One-Project-Manager partner with Offshore consultants – Well - this is very new type of partners - and you potentially can save a lot of money if you are risk taker - hourly rate is usually lower, price of the failure maybe higher.
5. Nation-wide partner with tiny local representation, serving via remote support. We are in this category, so let me tell you couple of good points here. Companies like ours - have to specialize in order to do excellent job in what we claim is our specialization (technology challenging projects with heavy customization needs). Serving via remote support lets us keep reasonably low rates and often go for fixed bids.
Also couple of hints about how do you switch the partner. It is actually more easy than you may think - you just send the new proposed partner the letter in free format saying that you would like to switch to you as my Microsoft Business Solutions partner - and this is it.

Internet Shopping for online tv
Internet shopping enables us to access many online tv stores and view their offerings from the comfort of our own home. One of the biggest misconceptions about shopping on the Internet for online tv is that it is unsafe and insecure, this is far from the truth. Even if your credit card number is stolen and used to make unauthorized purchases you are not responsible and most credit card companies insure online tv purchases with fraud protection insurance, at no additional cost to you.
It is a hassle if your card number is ever stolen but in all actuality you have more of a chance having your card number stolen at a real online tv store than on the Internet. Below are several steps you can take to help ensure safe and secure lg online tvping.
It's always good to be familiar with the reputation of any online tv company you're dealing with. To find out more about a company most online tv websites have an ABOUT US section which will tell a little about the organization. Government agencies also monitor the activities of lg online tv to ensure that the goods and services they provide are acceptable to consumers.
When you decide to purchase online tv online check out the CONTACT US section of the online tv website to ensure that you can actually contact them by phone, fax or email. Reputable firms will most certainly carry this information.
It also pays to check out their returns policy. Many online tv websites offer a no obligation period with a guarantee of full refund of the purchase price if you return the goods in a satisfactory condition.
Internet shopping for online tv is rapidly growing and this means high competition between sites selling and marketing online tv goods or services. This competition is good for you because it means everyone selling online tv has to operate their business to high ethical and professional standards.
