We recognize that partnership extends beyond a transaction and requires a considerable commitment before, during and after the sale. Our strengthened commitment to training and support will ensure that customers in the live sound and rental communities extract optimal return from their investment in our platform, Pickowitz said today. If we can provide customers with greater consistency in terms of system performance and setup efficiency, then we'll help improve their businesses and therein lies the goal of this new group.
