New Berlin, WI, October 07, 2011 --(PR.com)-- SoftwareONE, The Software Licensing Experts, today announced after completing the Microsoft Experience Center (MEC) Qualification Program, it is now officially certified to begin delivering MEC sessions to business and technology decision makers. SoftwareONE is the first Large Account Reseller (LAR) in the United States to be selected and qualified by Microsoft to utilize permanent and mobile MECs.

“The MEC can be difficult to describe,” stated Craig Gadberry, Vice President and General Manager. “It is not a presentation or a demonstration. It’s interactive and completely dynamic. It’s truly something SoftwareONE believes every company executive should experience.”

Microsoft describes the MEC as giving business and technology decision makers the opportunity to test drive the Microsoft business productivity platform in a real-life environment. An interactive, immersive MEC session offers the best way to learn about Microsoft business productivity tools and technologies. Through experiential learning and dynamic discussions, end users can comfortably discover which Microsoft solutions can best help their company innovate and grow.

“We are extremely pleased to be the first LAR to achieve this status in the United States,” Craig said. “Even more gratifying is to see our MEC facilitators interacting one-on-one with the customer in a real-life environment. The customer completely drives the agenda, which eliminates sales pressure, long demos, and redundant presentations, keeping the focus on the customer experience, where it belongs.”

SoftwareONE’s MEC sessions can either be held at permanent Microsoft Technology Centers (MTCs), or through mobile MEC capabilities, SoftwareONE is able to bring the experience directly to the customer in their own IT environment.
