Beta Programs
Information Like Water®
At MicroStrategy, we continually work to improve our products, develop new ones and bring you the Best in Business Intelligence™. Before our software is available to the general public, Beta Participants evaluate new products in their own environments. Beta Participants provide valuable feedback which shapes the future direction of our products.
If you are a current MicroStrategy customer and you want to help shape the next generation of products — the software that will make a difference in your operations — then you have what it takes to be a Beta Participant. Contact Beta Programs today to find out how you can get started.
What Does it Mean to be a Beta Participant? |
| |
|
Beta Participants are in a unique position to learn about MicroStrategy products while they're still in development. You'll give feedback that helps make our software fit your needs and the needs of other clients. Beta Participants stay on the leading edge and gain valuable insight into the industry's direction…knowledge that will keep you a step ahead. As a Beta Participant, you will be given access to download each new version of the Beta Product as soon as it is released. You will be asked to install and use the product in your test environment and to provide us with comments on what you like or don't like about the product's functionality, feel, and interface, as well as any other feedback you wish to give. Further, all Beta Participants will have an opportunity to work with MicroStrategy on Product Launch Activities at the conclusion of the Beta Program. This will raise the profile of your work and may include participating in a short, conveniently scheduled interview conducted by MicroStrategy. You will be asked to discuss your business application and how the Beta software fits into your current operations. |
“Being able to ask questions
about how the product works and setup issues and being able
to watch the field tester interact with the software was very
educational. The field tester was very receptive to any questions
that I asked about the functionality of the product. One of
my questions was logged as a new enhancement case.” “Working with the Beta Programs consultant gave us an opportunity
to share our wish-list. We really feel that our comments and
issues regarding the software were being addressed.” |
