How To Get More from Microsoft
Everyone knows that an MSDN subscription can slash licensing costs and provide
discounted access to Microsoft support. But Microsoft provides a host of other
services and avenues for getting enhanced support, services and insight. Whether
it's signing up for beta and other pre-release product programs, tapping into
partnership programs that nurture fledgling ISVs, or working to obtain certification
for your firm or MVP status for a key employee, there are plenty of ways to
get more out of Microsoft.
We want to hear from you. Have you managed to obtain enhanced service and support
by participating in a Microsoft program? If so, we want to hear your story.
Tell us how you found the program, why you joined it and what benefits you got
from it. And if you have advice for readers, please let us know. We may publish
your input in our next issue of Redmond Developer News. E-mail me at mdesmond@reddevnews.com.
