The Office 2007 discussion guide to assist partner in driving deployment with customers was released last month. This guide was developed in response to feedback from partners requesting guidance and resources to best answer the common customer question “Why should I deploy Office 2007 now, rather than later?” This guide has been posted to www.microsoftddps.com and is available for partners now!

Available in three formats, the actual detailed discussion guide, quick reference guide and a power point presentation, this comprehensive guide provides information on key blockers, customer evidence, and resources that can help you address concerns and blockers with customers today.
