SBS 2008 & EBS 2008 case studies now available

Microsoft Case Studies

We're starting to see some Corporate driven case-studies flow down now from those customers & partners who were part of the original Technology Adoption Program (TAP).

Whilst I personally think these are a bit light on specific, measurable business results (as well as being US focused) they do highlight the new opportunities that both SBS & EBS will offer partners. I also take Vijay's point around "less marketing, more meat" & promise that you will begin to see a LOT more content - including pricing, an invitation to the beta & the Australian readiness plan - in the coming weeks.

With this mind, we will soon be calling for Australian partners to submit case-study proposals, the best of which will potentially be show-cased at TechEd & the Australian Partner Conference as part of the official SBS launch.

I acknowledge that we haven't provided enough information to date - but this will change. :-)

Cheers,

Robbie
