Tech Pro Research is now TechRepublic Premium

We’re excited to announce that Tech Pro Research, a joint venture between ZDNet and TechRepublic, is becoming TechRepublic Premium.

If you’re an existing Tech Pro Research subscriber, we’re making it even easier for you to access all our great premium content. Simply log in to TechRepublic with your current Tech Pro Research username and password, and you’re on your way. You can access your TechRepublic Premium downloads and manage your subscription from the “TechRepublic Premium” tab on your TechRepublic Profile page.

If you’re not a Tech Pro Research subscriber, then we’re going to explain how TechRepublic Premium can help you make smart IT decisions and be an innovative IT leader.

TechRepublic has offered a premium subscription product since we launched Tech Pro Guild in 1999, when the offerings included in-depth technical articles, online access to IT books, and printed journals. Yes, back then we still mailed paper journals every month.

Since it launched 20 years ago, Tech Pro Guild has transformed through a series of changes. We eliminated the paper journals and moved to downloadable documents–causing trees everywhere to rejoice. We expanded our premium content to include ready-made IT policies and ebooks compiled from the best of TechRepublic and eventually from other CBS Interactive websites like ZDNet and CNET. Eventually we fully integrated Tech Pro Guild into TechRepublic, renaming it TechRepublic Pro, and in 2013 we broke it out into a separate site, Tech Pro Research.

What’s never changed is our commitment to helping you get the information you need to solve tough IT problems. And today, we’re excited to announce that we’re making it easier than ever for you to get that information by bringing it back into TechRepublic as TechRepublic Premium.
