The Solution: Choices<br />
• Traditional “mega” IT vendors offer broad solution suites<br />
– But… innovation is slow, suites are complex and burdensome to own<br />
• Smaller, more focused vendors offer innovative solutions<br />
– But… breadth is limited, support & services options are limited, vendor risk is high<br />
• <strong>Quest</strong> offers the best of both worlds<br />
– Rapid innovation, focused capabilities, integrated solution set, vendor strength & stability<br />
