"ERAC provide us with a value that we couldn't get otherwise, especially when we're dealing with large corporations like Adobe and Microsoft. People like me are constantly being bombarded by vendors. I usually tell them to email me information and I look at it on a case by case basis, but I follow ERAC's lead."
