I assume that most of PerformancePoint's customers were mid-market companies, or divisions of larger enterprises. It is my opinion that they went with this product set for one of two reasons: 1) attractive pricing and/or 2) the fact that it was built on the Microsoft platform. The BPM market today is ripe with vendors targeting the mid-market. If low TCO was the main driver they should consider companies such as Adaptive Planning, with their SaaS budgeting and planning solution. If they want a Microsoft-based solution then perhaps Prophix's SQL Server edition would be a fit. If neither of these work for them then just maybe they can find a fit with one of the 100 or so BPM vendors we just wrote about in our annual BPM Buyers Guide. Although PerformancePoint is dead, the BPM market is thriving with many vendors to choose from. There is no reason to stick with a dead product. Bite the bullet and drag out your old detailed requirements document that was used when you selected PerformancePoint. Evaluate an appropriate short-list of the 100 or so other BPM vendors against it. It shouldn't be too hard to find a suitable replacement.
