Our 38th Annual Dealer Survey concludes in the November issue with dealer ratings of their A3, A4, production print, and print management and ECM/document management vendors. Dealers also rate their leasing partners and hardware vendor dealer meetings. In addition, dealers identify their biggest concerns. What’s always of particular interest to me in this issue are the comments from dealers to explain their ratings. Don’t miss those.
