Redwood Shores, CA .-Demonstrating its ongoing momentum in enabling channel partners to more easily serve the midsize businesses, Oracle today announced that the Oracle VAD Remarketer Program has signed more than 50 Remarketer Authorized Value Added Distributors (VAD) globally.
Through these Oracle VADs in North America; Latin America; Europe, the Middle East, Africa; and Asia Pacific more than 1,200 resellers worldwide have closed Oracle business on Oracle 1-CLICK Ordering Technology products.
