The goal of Preserv8’s software as a services strategy is to empower customers and partners with richer applications, more choices, and greater opportunity. How software is consumed will ultimately be decided by customers based on their IT strategies and specific needs. We believe in the power of choice. If customers want to maintain control of their environment, they can choose to have an on-premise solution. If their business demands a more flexible solution, or needs to outsource certain aspects of the business, then customers have the choice of a hosted solution. "This newest pillar of Software-plus-Services is going to open up a whole new opportunity for existing partners to extend their business and a whole new opportunity for new partners to come along and create value in the marketplace." -- Kevin Turner, COO, Microsoft Additional Talking Points
