Six Vendors to Watch in Q1 2023 – new research
Settle down, grab a cup of tea, put your feet up, and have a good long read of what we believe to be excellent and timely industry research.
Four vendors to watch – Q4 2022
This past week we published four new reports (free to access) illustrating the flood of innovation hitting our industry.
2023 Information & Automation Management Predictions
Predictions are fun to write and must always be taken with a grain of salt; even so, they always look much more authoritative and impressive when put into the chart form. So we did that.
M&A Roundup – November 2022
It’s been a while, but its time for a quick update on what’s been happening from an M&A perspective in the industry these past couple of months.
2022 Innovation Index Award Winners
We are genuinely excited to announce the 2022 years Innovation Index Award winners. As in past years, it’s a truly eclectic bunch who, in their unique way, caught us by surprise and gave us a wow moment.
6 New Reports – Nov 2022
Today we released yet another batch of research reports, Vendor Vignettes. These short reports are, in essence, a vendor product or service review.
OpenText World 2022 Report
The goal is to release updates to Titanium every three months for the next year and a half, so that’s something we will watch closely to monitor the progress.
Box Works 2022 Report
Unlike the past two years’ flurry of game-changing product announcements such as Box Sign, Box Shield, Box Governance, and Box Shuttle, Box Works 2022 was short on “new” and long on “we’re now in GA with all the stuff we said we would do”. This will be good news for Box’s enterprise license customers who seem eager to deploy the new tools.
M&A Roundup – Sept 2022
Each month (or so), we look at what has been happening from an investment and M&A viewpoint in our world of Information and Automation Management. We can say that despite the recession and layoffs, the market remains quite vibrant.
UIPath (moving) Forward 5 – Our Take
So what to make of UIPath at this point in their early public days? From an industry analyst’s perspective, they have come a long way in a short time.
Six New Reports Available
Today we released a new batch of six research reports, Vendor Vignettes. These short reports are in essence, a product or service review of particular vendors offering.
OpenText acquires MicroFocus – Our Analysis
But the underlying fundamentals make sense; furthermore, OpenText has long been a Private Equity firm that isn’t technically a PE, so it’s a deal in line with OpenText’s overall M&A strategy. In short, its a deal that makes perfect sense when you dig a little deeper.
Information Automation & Management (IAM) Roundup – July/August 2022
It’s worth noting that all this activity is occurring in a harsh economic climate, but not so tough for some as Google, Microsoft, Oracle, and Amazon have seen their cloud revenues soar recently. The broader economy may have issues, but software and services to automate and bring order to business chaos are still thriving.
Managing Fragmented Workforces
Few organizations have addressed the monumental challenge of transforming how to manage teams and individuals remotely or, for that matter, how those remote workers access critical information in a fragmented organizational structure.
Laiye acquires Mindsay – And why it matters…..
So, in summary, Laiye is a new and earnest player to contend with. One we will continue to watch with great interest over the next few years.
Legal Tech – 2022 and Beyond
So it is all doom and gloom? No, most certainly not; the shifts in the legal sector are now unstoppable. Many have finally moved to the cloud, and more are following quickly in their wake.
5 New Reports Available
Our website recently published five new vendor-specific reports (Vendor Vignettes in Deep Analysis parlance). And we have many more in the works that we plan to publish in late September.
UIPath acquires Re:Infer – Our Thoughts
Today, UIPath announced that it is to acquire UK-based Re:Infer, and quite frankly, it’s one of the most interesting deals of recent few years. Deep Analysis came across Re:Infer late in 2021 and subsequently met with and wrote about them earlier this year, and in that report stated that it would be a good acquisition candidate.
RPA & Recession
Technology that automates repetitive tasks and cost-cutting go hand in hand, so with a looming recession, it’s logical to expect RPA tools to do well. Overall, they are doing well, but in recent conversations with buyers, systems integrators, and resellers, things are not going as well as they should be.
