Forecasts and Prognoses:
o Offshore is only part of the solution. The main reason within our opinion is reasonable conservatism from the side of potential clientele. There were so several malicious virus attacks with overseas and we don't simply trust somebody that's over there and never had an opportunity to shake our hands. The second reason : small to mid-size companies (who have conservative approach to trust somebody) might possibly not have strong IT support and infrastructure to be served via remote desktop, VPN or web session.
o Established Associates with Offshore facilities. It's possible way, however we now have certain skepticism here. The reason to our skepticism is - established partners have to command highest consulting rates as a result of high level of admin and headquarters expenses, so the savings to the end client may not substantial
o New Compact Nationwide Partners. Due to the recession, there were cases when minor partners must leave mid-size consulting agencies and form new companies on their own, believing in their expertise and also the new way of joining up with offshore programming groups. We believe that the longer term market will turn to these partners and brand-new nation-wide practices.

Net. The plans are the plans, but the realities involving Microsoft Great Plains customization signals that Dexterity will stay another 5-7 years since IDE. However I agree while using the strategy that if you're new GP reseller you don't wish to hire Dexterity programmer
o SQL Integration. We see more and more requests for Great Flatlands integrations with web ecommerce applications, industry specific sources: Freight Forwarding, Distribution, Logistics, Beverages, Jewelry, Furniture, Consignment. Healthcare, etc. The dilemma for this programmer is - should I know all the details of Great Plains bench structure model and page workflow - or probably purchase the set of SQL stored procs to aid me.
If the VPN provider is physically situated a cooperative jurisdiction but has servers in non cooperative jurisdictions like Panama, Russia, China, then this is certainly better privacy. But the highest privacy is if Both physical location of your VPN provider and at least some of their servers are in non cooperative off ocean locations. Then data retention laws may not be enforced and the VPN provider is far less likely to breach its stated online privacy policy to log, cache and pay your data/information/IPs.
