The BI Boom
CRMBuyer is rolling out a new series on business intelligence this week that’s worth checking out. Part 1 is called The New Players and features this quote from LucidEra’s CEO Ken Rudin:
“For the larger vendors, BI will stand for ‘bloated integration’ for the foreseeable future as customers struggle to upgrade and migrate and sales territories and business units get sorted out. In the meantime, the demand for the promise of decision support and performance management solutions continues to grow.”
The article outlines how BI continues to be a top priority for CIOs and some of the emerging technologies and business models such as software as a service (SaaS) that Gartner also recently highlighted in this article.
