Research for the 2010 Everything Channel Partner Program Guide and the Five-Star Partner Program rating was conducted by Everything Channels research department. Everything Channel analyzed 130 vendor programs rating vendors responses to in-depth questions about their partner programs in the five elements of sales support, partner profitability, partner ecosystem development/management, partner communication/marketing, and demand generation. For fair comparisons, companies were placed in one of four categories (Enterprise, Midsize, Small, and Emerging) based on company size. Questions from each section were scored individually and weighted appropriately.
