Standardization is Important, Microsoft is Not

According to the initial results from the 2007 BPM Pulse survey, more than two thirds of the respondents are pursuing business performance management as part of their corporate system consolidation/standardization initiatives. A similar number were not aware of Microsoft's momentous announcement last June about their planned entry into the space. Of those who were aware of the announcement, the majority said it had little to no impact on their BPM plans. Microsoft clearly has an uphill battle ahead of it. Of course if they deliver a great product at the right price point that can change everything. Other key findings from this survey, including customer satisfaction ratings for the major vendors, will be revealed live this Thursday, January 18th at 12:00 ET. Replay now available here. Detailed results from the survey will be published here on the B-Eye Network in the coming weeks as part of the BPM Newsletter.
