In the ever-evolving landscape of software distribution, the significance of distributors is frequently scrutinised. In fact, a prevailing belief suggests that the intermediary role of software distributors is unnecessary, advocating instead for direct engagement.
The question remains: What distinct value does a distributor offer if their main role is to have a proficient understanding of technology?
