The first thought I had that NetSuite kept the press and analyst schedule at its recent SuiteWorld conference so filled to keep us from attendees was quickly dismissed.

DELTEK AND THE CHANNEL?

- News and Analysis
- Written by mark
The recent death of Sean Hickey, the VP of sales at Deltek, had me thinking more about that company and its relationship to the channel. Hickey, you may remember, had taken over Taylor Macdonald's job after he left at the end of 2008. Since then, the channel has shrunk as stronger VARs have taken over the business of other channel members. But it's the acquisition of Maconomy that has my focus and Maconomy is clearly the hot ticket at Deltek and it's a direct sales organization.

The other is that the vendor issued a press release about the enlistment. Syspro has picked up some bigger people, well, bigger meaning on the Bob Scott's Top 100 VAR list, but these were Sage VARs.

SUITEWORLD: THE BODY COUNT
- Friday, 13 May 2011

- Written by mark
There are few better ways of measuring the impact of NetSuite in the market than the number of press and analysts attending SuiteWorld in San Francisco. Officially, there were 80 which puts it in the same ballpark as the attendance from this estate as attended Microsoft’s Convergence confab. (I’m officially admitting analysts into the fourth estate to make this analogy fly.) Read more...
