Following an intensive and stringent training process, Agresso has
strengthened its ties with Oracle by becoming an Oracle Certified Solution
Partner. Currently only an elite of ten per cent of Oracle Independent
Software Vendors (ISVs) has achieved this status. The aim of this
partnership program is to speed up and broaden future development
opportunities, brought about as a result of the improved technical
competence it entails, cooperative support and joint sales and marketing
activities.
Halvor Walla, Agresso's product director comments: "With advanced
cooperation at this level, we will be able to offer our customers even
better solutions based on the Oracle platform with its advanced scalability
and reliability features, not to mention speed."
Michael Jacobs, partner director of Oracle Norway adds: "The benefits are
mutual. The high level of competence and commitment that Agresso shows,
helps improve the pace of development. The close contact and between the
two organizations improves the quality of combined solutions."
This accreditation enhances the reseller agreement signed in the last year
by further improving the integration with and use made of the Oracle product
capabilities.
Selection criteria
In order to qualify for the program, a number of nominated ISV professionals
undergo a series of educational courses culminating in a final test. Areas
covered include issues such as installation, set-up, optimization and
management. The accreditation is reviewed on an annual basis.
