HP is well ahead of some of its rivals according to the latest Vendor Value Service report by Ziff Davis Enterprise Research. The study of midmarket CIOs found that HP was the vendor of choice among 472 organizations, including 172 mid-size firms. The survey rated Dell second, tied with Verisign. Cisco and Citrix were tied at fourth. And Oracle came in 15th in the survey, despite its recent efforts to move into the midmarket sector.
There was some good news for IBM even though Big Blue hasn't shown any major changes from last year within the hardware, software and services category. The survey found that its customers are standing by the company, with its loyalty score 22 points higher than its overall rating. That's good news in a tough market!
