# How can I assess the financial stability and long-term support continuity of Oracle resellers before committing to a multi-year vendor contract?

<p class="elv-tracking-normal elv-text-default elv-font-figtree elv-text-base elv-leading-base elv-font-normal" elv="true">How do you actually assess an Oracle reseller's financial stability and long-term support continuity before a multi-year contract? The fear is a partner getting acquired or deprioritizing you mid-term, and reviews speak more to delivery than to balance sheets. What we're hoping to find:</p><ul>
<li>Signs of scale and staying power, not just a strong pitch</li>
<li>Support continuity and low turnover on the account</li>
<li>A multi-year track record you can verify</li>

And did support continuity actually hold across your multi-year Oracle contract?</p>

Honestly this is smart to think about before signing multi-year, because a reseller going under or getting acquired mid-contract can strand your support. First, favor established, financially stable firms, the large public integrators like Tata Consultancy Services, Cognizant, Wipro and Fujitsu have obvious staying power compared to a small boutique, though boutiques can still be fine with the right safeguards. Concretely, I&#39;d ask for financial statements or evidence of stability, check how long they&#39;ve held Oracle partner status and at what tier, and get references specifically about long-term support continuity. Then bake protection into the contract: clear SLAs, defined escalation paths, and terms covering what happens to your support if they&#39;re acquired or exit the practice. To be real, G2 reviews won&#39;t tell you about financial health, that&#39;s diligence you do directly. Is your bigger worry the firm&#39;s viability, or continuity of the specific team that knows your environment?
