Vendor Value Survey: Top Ten Charts - ' Two to One Improvement '
(
Page 5 of 5 )
Last year's slide has been reversed: The 2006 Vendor Value Survey reported that by three to one, most companies' overall ratings declined instead of improved. This year, 23 vendors improved their scores while 10 fell. (The other vendors either had no change, or were not included in the 2006 survey.) Check Point Software and VeriSign were the big winners, with nine-point increases; SAP increased by seven points. But Palm, which gained nine points in 2006, surrendered most of that gain this year.
