Innovate On Site Re-Launched

The new version of InnovateOn site has been launched with many new features:

Streamlined registration
The new registration engine significantly reduces the time required for a new partner to enrol
Multiple technology enrolment
Users can register a solution once and choose multiple Microsoft technologies that are being used in the solution.
Improved navigation
The new site has a simplified primary navigation and site layout to make it easier for users to access the information they need.
Solution-focused visual search
Innovate On now has a Silverlight-based visual search feature that allows users to find relevant Microsoft resources for their solution, based on the technologies used, the audience, and the phase of the solution lifecycle the solution is currently in.
Better access to benefits
A new benefits widget allows users to easily access all of their benefits from a single location.
New data-driven architecture
Innovate On was rebuilt from the ground up to provide a solid, secure, and flexible platform that will allows us to improve content management and add additional features over time.
