In the red corner were those that stated that if you are a well-established customer of Box, there was no logic in migrating to Microsoft. In the blue corner were those who boldly said there was no logic for anyone staying on Box.
Intelligent document processing (IDP) software is an essential component of digital transformation projects. Our report gives a comprehensive overview of market size, forecasts, vendors and buying tips.
Was the recent Syntex announcement at Ignite 2022 the most significant Microsoft news drop since the launch of SharePoint in 2001?
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.
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.
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 …
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.
It’s hard to believe that I founded Deep Analysis five years ago (almost to the day). It’s hard to believe we made it this far and that we are looking forward to the next five. But maybe what is hardest to grasp is just how much our industry has changed over these past few years. …
At Deep Analysis, we undertake technical and market due diligence for Private Equity, Investment Banks, and Vendors looking to acquire. Hence we keep a close eye on what is happening in the broader Information Management and Enterprise Automation market. May, except for the massive Kofax deal (our analysis here), has been relatively quiet, but a few deals this month did catch our attention….
Gartner has dropped its Magic Quadrant (MQ) for Content Services; it’s a big event in a relatively small world.
Every month or two, we do a quick round-up of the deals in the Information Management and Automation sector that caught our eyes. So much activity is a sign of health and strength in the industry.
IDP (AI-powered document capture/OCR) is about to cross the venerable chasm and enter the main street of B2B purchasing. And the charge is being led not by the legacy IDP vendors, but by the upstarts.
Before the pandemic, buyers were assailed by market and sales efforts from RPA and AI document automation vendors alike, which naturally spiked some interest. But the pandemic has driven a more rational reason growth of interest.
Every technology vendor and enterprise that recognizes that humans are the essential ingredient rather than the technology itself, that more data or information is not always better, and that unraveling decades of technology and culture takes time and often a brave leap of faith will be agents of positive change. They will leave behind the hoarders, the tech-obsessed, and the unrealistic in their wake.
OCR and RPA are becoming commodities, but that does not mean the end of capture and process management vendors. Instead, it means it’s time for them to consolidate, hunker down or pivot to new markets.
Rossum, a cognitive capture software startup out of the Czech Republic, just closed a remarkable Series A round of $100 million to ramp up what it’s calling a cloud-based universal document gateway. To our knowledge this is the largest single investment ever into a capture software startup.
There is a boxing match this week between Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder. But there is another equally heavyweight match lining up between Hyland and OpenText.
That is a tough pill to swallow for many enterprise software companies, but Box appears to be committed to it. From a buyer’s standpoint, it makes the platform attractive and predictable in terms of cost. From Box’s perspective, it means a short-term hit but much stickier and longer-term relationships with its subscription base.
Considering the sheer volume of startups and smaller legacy firms, there is no shortage to choose from, and the economies of scale can make many a target.
A cheap and straightforward to install and use blockchain add-on/plugin to systems like SharePoint and Salesforce. I rarely call out a specific vendor in an analyst note, and I only do so here to ask why it took so long?
