CRN India, a part of UBM India Technology Media group and India's No. 1 IT Channel media publishing house, unveils a new look of its portal - http://www.crn.in. The new website is a step ahead towards offering its audience the best platform to engage, network and partner with the community. The new website features easier navigation, easier interaction, better networking and opportunities.

"We are excited to bring a completely new website of CRN to our readers with several new features.

The whole idea was to enhance the user experience. Now the users can access news based on various classifications such as national, international, company and industry segments. This ensures that users can pick and read only relevant news. It also now has a special section namely the "Role Model" & "Get Personal". The "Role Model" section features some of industry's role models and their journey both as an individual and as a professional. The "Get Personal" is a web section that talks exclusively about the personal side of key channel industry partners. The portal also now has a rich library of digital print issues in the "Print Archive" section.

A lot of attention now also goes into what's known as "Community". This section is a mix of two - Discussion Forum and Gallery. The discussion forum is a place for the community to post updates and initiate discussions on areas including technology, business, associations and the likes. It also offers a unique platform namely the "Marketplace" to the channel community to engage into buying & selling, announce partner requirements, schemes, offers and also post jobs.
