We are in the preparation stage and are assessing our vendor base, manufacturing capacity and the seasonality of demand. We will launch Civic after all details are worked out.
Rajive Saharia
Vendor deliveries improved a little from last month and all of it indicates that the business climate is favorable for Western New York.
William Ellis
The only way a vendor can find out that you are violating the terms of their license agreement is by monitoring your use. It [seems like] Big Brother.
Skip Lockwood
It took us some time to determine what the problem was, but once they did, the vendor came in and fixed the problem. And we are glad they did.
David Weinstein
Standards are important to large corporations where one office uses one biometric vendor and another office uses another. If the two comply with standards, they can interoperate.
Frances Zelazny
We're looking at doing a convenience contract with a vendor to work with the governance structure (on the Coast). Because this (statewide) system isn't going to be available this summer and probably not next, we need to have a good plan for how we can use what we already have.
David Litchliter
A critical factor in selecting monitoring software is to ensure it is not tied to any one vendor. Effective security requires an independent program able to monitor data flowing from and to any application, irrespective of format, vendor or version.
Amir Lubashevsky
Selection of a CRM vendor is a marriage, not a date. Enterprise buyers must think carefully about the vendor partner they choose and understand the long-term commitment of these decisions.
William Band
The Innovation Centers have been working really well for IBM, ... When a vendor approaches them and says they want to partner, IBM asks them, 'Have you ported to Linux?' and, if they haven't, IBM recommends the centers to help them with tools [to migrate to Linux.]
Judith Hurwitz
Look at this. It's worthless - ten dollars from a vendor in the street. But I take it, I bury it in the sand for a thousand years, it becomes priceless.
George Lucas
IBM is positioning itself to be the vendor of choice when the open-standards strategy manifests itself and Massachusetts divests itself of closed-standard technologies, ... Microsoft now has viable competition on the end user's desktop, whatever that desktop looks like over the next few years. IBM has served notice that it won't go down without a fight.
Carmi Levy
We believe our market leadership in the SIEM market is due to the differences in our Enterprise Security Management software's architecture as compared to competitors. Our architecture includes advanced data collection capabilities, as well as broad device support and vendor neutrality. This enables us to scale to meet the needs of the largest enterprises and most demanding government agencies.
Steve Sommer
We've been working hard to get on the city's good side. We have our state business license, our taxes done, the vendor registration is done and the insurance is covered.
Richie Allen
With a single vendor you've got a complete solution guaranteed to work together. We're really offering customers the ability to have very, very high-end enterprise functionality at a price that speaks really well to the small to mid-enterprise customers who have been priced out of this marketplace.
Jim Puchbauer
Once the transition is made, it is important to realize TSA is still responsible for the oversight of security. The vendor screeners will still be operating under TSA standards.
Carrie Harmon
We've had some version of the software from a third party vendor since 1999. We've been working on it for a long time and in the meantime, North Dakotans have had to pay time after time after time.
Brent Edison
A lot of this is sort of a unification of all these (separate) efforts into a base platform that meets the needs of more than one vendor. There really is no vendor neutral development on (mobile) Linux. There all different.
Dave Rosenberg
We received permission from the federal government to load April benefits early on March 27 since April 1 is on a Saturday. This way, both the vendor and our local and state offices would be open and staffed to help people with problems during the week. We certainly apologize to anyone who has experience difficulty.
Jon Allen
After we named the vendor, GTECH, they said that they could get it done earlier.
Pam Walker
We're not going to get caught up in a battle with a particular vendor. We'll fight it at the customer level.
Shannon Poulin
When you're visiting the page of an enterprise software vendor and you want to call their support number, that phone number will be highlighted and you'll instantly be connected.
Saul Klein
It applies to Red Hat distributions only. It will attract those who want Red Hat as their primary service and support vendor. In the data center, however, it may not be that attractive for exclusive open-source software stacks vs. hybrid commercial and open-source software stacks.
George Weiss
It's unusual, to be honest, to have a vendor recognize that there are things being done well.
Jan Dawson
Companies want to get value from all of their information, but no single vendor can address all of the search, text analytics and business insight needs across all types of information and for all industries. We are making UIMA available to the open source community to encourage innovation and allow analytics software tools from multiple sources to work together and build upon each other.
Nelson Mattos
It's time to ask if the faith in this vendor is misplaced. I think we can no longer assume the best.
Stephen Strahs
A lot of people think their vendors can solve this problem for them. We believe a vendor can provide a HIPAA-ready system, but only an organization can make it compliant. And it's not a one-time process like with Y2K. It's ongoing.
Richard Peterson
We had a few hitches Friday morning that were out of our control, but despite that, everything ran very smoothly and it's been a large success. Vendor response and general productivity was up in spite of the inclement weather.
Jeff Russell
There's a glass shortage now because there was a lot of glass blown out by the hurricanes that went through here last year. We're working with a vendor now to get the glass replaced.
Keith Bromery
Microsoft obviously takes way too long to fix flaws, ... All researchers should follow responsible disclosure guidelines, but if a vendor like Microsoft takes six months to a year to fix a flaw, a researcher has every right to release the details.
Tom Ferris
We are honored to receive this recognition by Gartner. We believe the 'Cool Vendor' designation reflects our ongoing commitment to provide our customers with server and storage solutions that meet the real-life needs of today's most complex data centers.
Tom Barton
Microsoft can compete against any single Linux vendor, but they can't compete a global Linux ecosystem with universal interoperability.
Jim Zemlin
Software is not static -- it is constantly changing. You can't just measure the executable; you need to measure the vendor.
Herbert Thompson
The common-law title will set out the premises that are being conveyed. The particulars of the parties, that is, the vendor and the purchaser and the considerations for the property, which is the amount of money that the property is being sold for.
Joan Walker
Each could make a case. For the vendor, it's not just about the price but also what each bidder can bring to the party.
Chris Tarry
And so, we'll have to see what wins the tug-of-war: greater vendor choice through interoperability and loose coupling, or reduced vendor selection for purposes of efficiency.
Ronald Schmelzer
The 22-year-old man died at 2 p.m. He was the vendor from a traditional market and the only positive case that we were treating today.
Ilham Patu
We are making UIMA available to the open source community to encourage innovation and allow analytics software tools from multiple sources to work together and build upon each other. Companies want to get value from all of their information, but no single vendor can address all of the search, text analytics and business insight needs across all types of information and for all industries.
Nelson Mattos
I think that as part of the mock election it was valuable to learn that so that the vendor can now understand that in the future that may be a problem that they may want to try to correct.
Kyle Walker
This has taken so long and been so labor-intensive this year that the thought of having to start all over again with a new vendor, and a new format that we don't know about, is just terrifying. I'm just hoping they've worked out all the kinks this year.
Jane Gazdziak
It was because as a processor vendor, that's the only way we could provide performance within the right power envelope.
Margaret Lewis
Our customers and prospects have long asked for a single enterprise-wide data connectivity vendor that can cover all platforms, including the mainframe. This acquisition lets us meet all of our customers' data-access requirements.
Rick Reidy
Network intrusions continue to plague IT managers, making automated security critical to availability and cost-effective management of a network. By reducing the complexity of network management and providing an effective way to identify and contain wired or wireless intruders, we're providing a cost effective way to manage and secure Alcatel and multi-vendor enterprise networks.
Tom Burns
If you touch your card to the fare vendor to start the transaction, put $20 in and then forget to close the transaction by putting the card within 3 inches of the target, the system will automatically take note of your mistake and send you a fare credit of $20 to add to your card. So basically what we've got is a very customer-friendly, highly secure, very flexible, very convenient system.
Peter Benjamin
It's the ace No. 1 bad reason to fire somebody. If you're talking to the vendor on the phone and you look down and see your fists are clenched, hang up and go for a walk. Nothing good is going to happen if you keep talking.
Rick Brenner
They've reduced their vendor list to only their top vendors. It's cheaper for them.
Richard Sneider
After a thorough analysis of our options, we determined it was more advantageous for the company and our shareholders to quickly and decisively shut down the business. We will continue to honor our commitments to all of our customers, suppliers and vendor partners.
James O'neill
If that capability is not built into any [backup] product in the next 18 months, that vendor will suffer.
Arun Taneja
That will probably happen in a separate release once we make an acquisition or form a strategic relationship with a best-of-breed vendor in that area.
Robert Craig
By taking a consistently negative attitude toward the competition, a vendor becomes increasingly insular. That's not good for business.
Charles Kingsley
We're the leading browser vendor on the mobile side of things.
Tor Odland
Lowe's is committed to recognizing and supporting efforts that help our neighbors and customers. No time is this support more important than following natural disasters. Since Lowe's launched its customer donation program in 2000, thanks to the generosity and cooperation of our customers and vendor partners, we have raised nearly $16 million for American Red Cross disaster relief efforts.
Larry Stone
It is not our intent to give the entire lottery management to a vendor, ... A vendor is going to supply us a product. The lottery is going to be run by a North Carolina lottery (commission) ... by a director who staffs up.
Charles Sanders
An operating-system vendor can mitigate at least some of the potential disadvantages of integration by providing customers the option of uninstalling the integrated application (or by offering non-integrated options to begin with).
Glenn Weadock
The strides taking place in desktop Linux are a direct result of community and vendor collaboration. This effort combined with delays in Microsoft?s Windows and Office packages, makes this week?s Linux desktop discussion very timely and relevant.
John Cherry
There was, and is, no intent to endorse a particular vendor.
Julia Huff
Over the last few years, Juniper [Networks Inc.] launched an enterprise router, 3Com [Corp.] launched a couple of routers, but there really isn't a clear No. 2 router vendor [after Cisco]. If you're going to pitch the end-to-end message, they had to do something.
Zeus Kerravala
They have the food concession for campus. I think they will be much easier to work with than an outside vendor.
Stephen Shorb
We've no intention of participating in a trial by a vendor hoping for large-scale uptake of their product.
Warwick Ponder
Carriers have to think broadly, and I think they understand now that they can't rely on sole-vendor relationships. It's just a cost of doing business.
Jill Stelfox
I'd rather align with a storage management solution that is more vendor-neutral.
Rick Curry
It was one of the limitations of Group Policy, that it couldn't be used across the board. You used to have to bring in other interfaces, some things you would have to write a script. Or you used whatever tool the hardware or software vendor provided to manage it, and each one used a different technique.
Peter Pawlak
Once a vendor is brought on board, the HIM director needs to be able to evaluate its services and point out this is what we wanted, this is what you actually delivered. Are they living up to what you expected? Are the costs in line with what you anticipated?
Chris Hopkins
Encrypting browser traffic prevents WAN optimization controllers from performing their optimization functions. When selecting a WOC vendor, it is important to understand their strategy for dealing with encrypted traffic like SSL.
Joe Skorupa
What they're trying to do is to take IP communications to another level. Every vendor has the same vision, but they're all at different points to getting there.
Zeus Kerravala
This is all about selling a solution to small business instead of a value-priced PC with a glob of software. This is a tier one PC maker and a tier one software vendor both offering very aggressive value price.
Richard Carriere
Just because [smaller companies] get gobbled up it doesn't mean the situation is any better. Instead of buying from 20 vendors you are buying 20 products from one vendor.
Michael Warrilow
We expect that they [Amazon] will be the first vendor. We haven't signed any license or contract.
Richard Sarnoff
We looked at Sun, Linux and Novell. They didn't give us exactly what we needed. I like the single-vendor system.
Tim Cornett
At the end of the day, the IT administrator does not care if it is spam or a virus. All they care is there is bad stuff coming off the Internet... and they want one vendor to protect them.
Steve Munford
Rather than select one vendor over another, as some universities have done, we have elected to facilitate as many vendors as possible to insure competition and enable choice.
David Swartz
When you look at it, there is a fairly significant differential in the cost of the oil and it makes a big difference. If there was a vendor that had access to that reduced cost, we would give it serious consideration.
Craig Turner
The main difference is going to be that SAM FS and QFS are hardened seventh-release proven products with 100 percent full vendor support, ... It's been around for a while and the others [GFS and CFS] are fairly new products and they are going to go through teething pains.
Chris Wood
By bringing the Onalaska campus on board, we should be able to recycle an additional 20 tons of paper and net a rebate of $1,500 a year. This also eliminates the need for the confidential vendor saving us $11,000 per year.
Bryan Rayner
We don't think of ourselves as just a tool vendor anymore. Tools are just kernel technologies that solve heavy analysis functions.
Steve Svoboda
We're pleased with the progress we've made. We've done some good work. The standards were implemented and demonstrated by multiple joint service parties, so we don't have a unique solution that only vendor 'A' will be able to use.
Cheron Taylor
We're offering a concrete business model with which we can go forward with vendor partners to allow readers access to the contents of our books in way that satisfies readers' interest in sampling and discovery.
Richard Sarnoff
Let that vendor host your Web package for a small monthly fee. Get started quickly and simply. Then watch to see what happens and what customers ask for before making the next investment.
Michael Hugos
That, plus, other job performance issues, were why he was terminated, but he didn't commit a criminal act because he didn't apply to be a state vendor. He just made a suggestion.
Melissa Mcdonald
Most hardware vendors are still testing their ACPI-compliant BIOS. Windows 98 is the first operating system that supports ACPI, and somebody has to lead the way, whether it's the hardware or software vendor.
Shawn Sanford
Our proven experience in kiosk deployment and support, combined with our full geographic coverage of the United States and Canada, enables smooth kiosk deployments resulting in improved time-to-market, simplified management with one services vendor nationwide, and improved customer satisfaction ratings.
John Rooney
The vendor won't be allowed back at Keller's unless the customer is happy.
Trey Stokes
Adobe is doing something that is the right thing to do for any vendor that has technology that has to do with the user experience. They are coexisting with AJAX. To some extent you could say that AJAX competes with Flex and Flash. It is widespread enough that vendors ignore it at their peril.
Ray Valdes
Carriers don't like their futures dependent on a single vendor. They may only buy from one vendor, but they want a choice. So it's very important to have a standard that gives them the security to know they can go to another supplier and the equipment will interoperate.
Paul Sergeant
We certainly do work with a number of vendor companies in China that support our work force here in Redmond. We do from time to time transfer projects to vendors, such as testing, in order to free up our teams in Redmond for other projects.
Stacy Drake
I believe that we can complete our analysis so that we can make a technology selection and vendor selection sometime late this year.
Ali Tabassi
The concepts of who is a BI-PM vendor will change.
Bill Hostmann
I would certainly recommend that users implement the vendor workarounds until a patch is made available. We feel that exploit code can and will be created.
Michael Sutton
In the mainframe world, contracts state that if I go out and trade my IBM mainframe for one that's twice as fast, then I have to go back to the vendor of the software and pay more money, ... Companies like BMC and CA have done very nicely over the last 10 years, and certainly over the last 5 years, when MIPS growth was just outrageous.
Paul Mason
We can manage through that because HP is not as big a vendor to us as to other competitors.
Kevin Murai
The vendor provided the service that we asked and should be paid for it.
Abby Ottenhoff
We would be happy to see any kind of hardware being shipped without an operating system, or pre-installed with free software. Furthermore, we would be happy to get in contact with any hardware vendor who wants to free his customers this way.
Joachim Jakobs
It can't pay every vendor until we borrow more money.
Jim Bennett
With sales incentive tools, there is always a high degree of integration required. Companies need to determine how complex their territories are, how much overlay is involved, double compensation, all that good stuff, and choose a vendor based off that information.
Judy Sweeney
In terms of confidence that a vendor can pull it off, with multiple events at the same time, there were only a few who can do it.
Joe Ferreira
LSI has achieved first pass success on this product. Using LSI, OEMs have the opportunity to source expanders and controllers from a single vendor, providing proven interoperable solutions and the lowest risk path to success. By reducing the number of vendors to be managed, these OEMs can speed products to their customers faster.
Robin Wagner
OEMs were outsourcing, reducing their vendor base and practicing lean techniques. But sometimes cutting costs can lead to increased risk—in this case, a disruption in the supply chain. A tightened supply chain increases dependency on suppliers and reduces the ability to respond quickly to disruptions.
Jim Lawton
We've been talking to multiple vendors, and evidently, our conversations with Amazon yielded some fruit, ... because they announced their own initiative on the heels of our announcement. We can now hope or expect them to be our fist vendor.
Richard Sarnoff
I can't read anybody's minds, but up to this point in history no vendor has ever refused to sell to a willing jurisdiction who wants to purchase equipment. Ironically after Leon County conducted tests that revealed vulnerabilities to their e-voting systems, then nobody would sell to us.
Ion Sancho
This merger is another confirmation of the telecommunications industry experiencing dramatic changes in business models, strategy and operations. As carrier consolidation continues to drive increased vendor instability, existing players will need to seek merger and partnership opportunities to compete within the new market structure.
Nick Maynard
My impression is the US government shares some of those feelings about Microsoft. The fact that it is closed source and they are at the mercy of such a large and dominant vendor such as Microsoft would seem to be a national security risk.
Linda Walsh
We don't comment on vendor transactions.
Jerry Shields
Our core strength as a company has always been a culture based on listening to our clients. We think of ourselves as a partner rather than a vendor. For example, we continuously look to our clients for feedback on our strategic development initiatives. The end result is a product suite that evolves with our clients' businesses.
Tom Gavin
Overall, Manhattan Associates establishes itself as the lead in ground transportation solutions. The vendor edges out the competition with a solid foundation in both planning and procurement, and unmatched carrier and fleet management offerings.
Noha Tohamy
Vendor consolidation is a major trend that forces customers to consolidate their IT (information technology) landscape, ... They're redrawing their landscape without those smaller vendors who they see as being most at risk.
Peter Graf
It's something any operating system vendor has to have.
Serguei Beloussov
If you believe in the industry-vendor relationship, vendors should mirror their customers. Consolidation may happen or it won't. But if it happens, others will follow.
Frank D'amelio
We've gotten a lot of response across the state from concerned counties and folks who generally think that having one vendor in the election machine pipeline is a bad thing for everybody.
Paul J. Meyer
For more sophisticated users, it's a small price to pay to get security that you know works from a vendor who has been doing it for 15 to 20 years. It's a different ball game for Microsoft who is not known for security.
Gregg Moskowitz
The federal government is acting more and more like a private sector business. They are cutting costs, reviewing opportunities closely, and conducting cost-benefit analyses for their IT investments. This is a new era in government spending practices and these cost-saving measures will affect federal IT budgets and, therefore, vendor opportunities.
James Krouse
In this age of the Internet, with vendor alliances being formed and customer purchase decisions being made, it appears Microsoft has fallen behind in establishing its position in these emerging markets. Or, if it has, it's the best kept secret in the technology industry.
Melissa Eisenstat
The vendor inadvertently didn't stuff all the envelopes. They have made good on the mistake.
Mike Jackson
From my limited experience looking at other such packages, ours is much less expensive and better software than the currently existing proprietary tools on the market. Also, it's based on open source technologies, which means there's no vendor lock-in.
Adrian Holovaty
Yes, Daniel Robbins has decided to leave Microsoft to pursue his passion for software development with an independent software vendor where he will be focused on building in .Net on Windows. This move also takes Daniel and his family back to their hometown community of Albuquerque?We thank Daniel for his contribution to Microsoft and wish him the best of luck on his new job.
Bill Hilf
I think there is a concern that innovation only comes from two vendors living across the street of each other. Sometimes, we spend so much time worrying about what the other vendor is doing, that we stop figuring out what customers need to be successful.
John Wookey
We've always been a BPM vendor, but with 5.0 we've expanded and consolidated enterprise architecture, because we've seen that companies deal with a lot more than just processes.
Douglas Emig
What our standards will do is enable desktop application vendors to easily target the Linux ecosystem, not just a single vendor, to make sure they run across all the different distributions.
Jim Zemlin
There needs to be rationalization in this industry. No one vendor has a major share.
Timm Bechter
Salesforce.com addressed the issue with the database vendor. There are no outstanding issues in the system at this time.
Bruce Francis
We determined that part of the problem was with software we were getting from an outside vendor, and we're continuing to improve the experience. But we're telling our customers to expect a three- to five-day wait [for the port]. You need to be realistic.
Marc Siegel
There are a lot of non-profit organizations that are wanting to find a way to make money. A lot of vendor-type stuff and entertainment. We've had a lot of groups sending their CDs.
Beth Richardson
Unfortunately, the general level of service did not increase. Almost every vendor showed evidence of making a big effort after the 2003 survey, but results show some of them didn't gain much traction on customer service and training.
Bill Keith
This is a real but minor issue involving a vendor quality problem in a small number of units. In fact, this issue has affected less than 1/10 of 1 per cent of the total iPod nano units that we've shipped. It is not a design issue.
Phil Schiller
We haven't chosen a particular security vendor to work with. Dr Tom Potter from my team -- who's the head of [IT] security -- has built the IDS using a whole lot of tools that are available in the market.
Doug Gardner
A food vendor told me they were within $500 of their previous year's entire fair sales within the first two days.
Angela Sidlo
FIS provides a host of services designed to help our clients manage their businesses. One way we can do that is to help them navigate the ever-increasing challenges of regulatory compliance. The introduction of our new source code escrow service will help simplify their ability to meet vendor management oversight responsibilities.
Lenny Smith
[What does this mean for print buyers? In Romano's survey of why buyers select one printer over another, buyers most often are purchasing time - they need to have their jobs delivered on schedule and will use the vendor who can do it. Today's print buyers are looking for] instant everything - quotes, contact, status reports, proofs, repeat jobs, preflighting, job submission, and hand holding, ...
Frank Romano
I disregard [the vendor] classification schemes. I go by what I see in the wild.
Keith Morgan
It looks like we're going to have another good one. We've got all but two or three vendor spaces filled, and the lineup is going to be a good one.
Walan Kite
This vendor is going to be out of a contract in a few weeks if they don't fix the problem and fix it right away. We aren't going to tolerate this.
Randy Dunn
When we obtained receipts directly from the vendor indicated the purchases were for wrinkle cream, cotton bikini underwear, and brassieres.
Randy Brock
Our internal financial controls related to vendor policies preclude any potential for a material adverse impact on the company.
Jerry Shields
The root cause of the intermittent access was an error in the database cluster. Salesforce.com addressed the issue with the database vendor. By Tuesday afternoon, the system was running normally for all users.
Bruce Francis
We sent the relevant documents as they relate to bank information and all that of the vendor to the FIFA. And as you know, FIFA doesn't pay the federation this money and then expect the federation to pay whoever, so we have sent off the relevant information to FIFA for the vendor to get paid.
Crenston Boxhill
Extra time is needed to be sure that every license vendor is geared up and ready for what we hear could be a rush for the available permits.
Diane Brookbank
There are a lot of different implementations out there at the moment. [A common extension for XML] will benefit enterprises because they'll be able to count on this API to be stable and secure, and they needn't be concerned about incompatibilities with each vendor using a proprietary parser.
Nancy Lee
5 of the top 30 vendor creditors.
Jay Walker
Symantec will be the first and only vendor to offer a complete security and archiving solution to help customers manage all their messaging requirements.
Enrique Salem
There are pockets of excellence, but we really don't have a vendor that has all of it.
Elana Anderson
Having a vendor say, 'This is a good learning experience,' is not the same thing as having them sold through an educational institution.
