Leading Technology Publication Gives Oracle Database Top Marks For Channel Strategy
REDWOOD SHORES, Calif., June 3, 2002 - Oracle Corp., the world's largest enterprise software company, today announced that the Oracle PartnerNetwork, Oracle's Partner Program inclusive of its network of channel partners, has been awarded the CRN Channel Champion's award in the Database category, gaining six points in overall rating within the last year. CRN research editors chose Oracle for its growing channel community and service, and for its continued role as a database technology innovator and leader in the market. The Channel Champion's award program, now in its eleventh year, is sponsored by CMP Media's CRN, the newsweekly for builders of technology solutions.
``Oracle is very pleased to be recognized by CRN,'' said Ken Muse, vice president of Channels at Oracle. ``It is encouraging to know that our solution partners place such value on Oracle9i Database, the Oracle PartnerNetwork and their relationship with us in the field. It is the feedback and support of the Oracle Channel community that has allowed us to achieve this recognition.''
The Channel Champions study, published in the March 18 issue, was designed to measure overall solution provider perceptions of vendor products and services. The survey is the largest and broadest-based solution provider market study in the industry and is used by solution providers throughout the industry to evaluate vendors and their programs. The vendors were rated in 20 key product and service categories by conducting 2,270 surveys.
``On behalf of all of us at CRN, we congratulate Oracle on being honored as a Channel Champion,'' said Charles Humphrey, Publishing Director, CRN. ``The Channel Champions survey is a testimony to what is important to Solution Providers when they evaluate vendors and when they ultimately select the products and services they will recommend to their customers. We applaud Oracle's success.''
