In the first of a two-part feature, this month’s VOX POP sees a number of the sector’s vendors explain which products, solutions and services they offer are currently most in demand and why, as well as the key challenges facing the channel at the moment (page 40). Also in this issue, Natasha Wrighton, Channel Development Manager, Canon UK & Ireland, picks the work tools she uses every day and couldn’t do her job without (page 18).
