When uncertainty is a certainty, how do we plan work?
When you consider the certainty of uncertainty – that no matter how diligently you prepare, you cannot predict what is around the corner – how does that affect how you think about planning your work?
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.
Why we need to automate our automation choices, and why we often don’t.
Those who know me well will know that I’m a massive public transport nerd outside my weekday life. Avoid me at parties, but specifically because I’ll end up talking about this. It’s not the trains. It’s more about networks and their interconnectivity, how these networks have grown over time, often through accident rather than design, and how their development tracks against our collective social history.
Seeing through complexity…..
Whatever technology you use is simply a set of tools, and you can build all sorts of solutions to problems with the right hands. Our industry tends to lack imagination, and too few renaissance people to see the wood from the trees.
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.
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.
Dreamforce 2022: Salesforce summons Genie to enable its real time, customer data wishes
Genie is the culmination of at least a decade’s worth of incremental progress building on top of the core CRM product through both organic development and a significant volume of acquisitions (of relevance here includes ExactTarget, Krux, Mulesoft as the most significant, at the head of a much longer list).
Moments of Action; applying AI to the tasks that matter
There is no shortage of opportunities for organizations and suppliers to identify those moments and create potentially significant value for each. Managing the data-heavy requirements of the AI to enable them, along with governance structures to ensure their efficacy in operation – not forgetting their accuracy in the outcome – remains a challenge.
Hyland CommunityLive 2022
Hyland took the plunge this year to return to an in-person (Nashville, TN) customer event. That decision was not an easy one to make. Many other tech firms have been struggling with the same decision-making process in the wake of the pandemic. But thankfully, it worked out well, and Community Live was well attended. So …
Standing up isn’t easy: Industry Verticalization of AI
A significant decision along the path from interesting to useful is where AI technology’s application hits the industry verticalization challenge. Lawyers want AI specific to their legal practice; healthcare insurance providers need AI that understands the complexity and details of healthcare insurance etc. For a technology vendor, the need to meet the requirements of a …

AI-Enabled BizApps driving the next wave of adoption
Value that should be front and center, not the underlying technology, however interesting. The successful business application of AI is ultimately just as revolutionary, if not more so, than the code, algorithms, models, and processors used.
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.
Hooked on Classics
How can a mature, mid-size IDP classic player compete with the shiny new AI-first stories? Their AI pitches are threatened with oblivion, overwhelmed by the capital-infused buzz created by the flashy start-ups with those huge sales and marketing budgets.
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.
On-Premises to the Cloud and back again
Interestingly, in many, if not all of our briefings, we ask technology vendors how much of their business is in the cloud and how much is on-premises. For some, the answer is 100% cloud, but you would be surprised how many planned to be cloud-only by 2022 but still have large (and in some cases growing) numbers of clients opting for or demanding on-premises deployments.
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.
