Burke On 'The Verizon Lesson'Steven Burke isn't happy about the way Verizon has treated it's MCI partners and he says there's a bigger lesson here for any solution provider: "It's foolish for VARs to put all their eggs in one vendor's basket. The bigger trend reshaping the channel right now is that VARs are establishing tighter bonds with their customers as MSPs and calling the shots on the entire IT budget. If you're not taking that strategic approach, you are vulnerable." Posted by Joe Caponi at 09:38 AM, December 7, 2006 This is a public forum.
