IT professionals have launched a campaign to request Microsoft to reconsider its decision or to provide an alternate, low-cost/high quality program to meet the needs of IT Pros worldwide. An online petition at http://savetechnet.com/ has already attracted more than 9000 signatures.

Adelaide-based IT Support Professional Michael Siddall said shutting down TechNet had the potential to adversely affect many IT professionals or people considering a career in IT. “TechNet is very affordable for the many IT professionals who are required to self-train and certify and for those getting into the IT industry,” he said.
