CRM and the everchanging state of change

June 1, 2007

Siebel 2.0: The end of Salesforce.com | blogs.zdnet.com

Salesforce.com is the next Siebel, the next CRM has-been, the next low-priced software buyout opportunity, unless somehow the company gets sold before its stock begins to tank or it engineers a remarkable turnaround from its current moribund strategy SF.com doesn’t have a critical mass of customers doing deep integration, and competitors like SAP and Oracle, and now Microsoft too, are all offering deep integration to their respective software stacks in addition to coming out with on-demand CRM offerings.  Deep integration can happen in the context of an on demand model for SAP, Microsoft, and Oracle customers, and therefore all of SF.com’s strategic differentiation has been lost.

End of Salesforce? I don't think so.

May 29, 2007

Siebel 2.0: The end of Salesforce.com | blogs.zdnet.com

Salesforce fills its niche very well.  It remains true to its original cause and has a large and loyal customer base.  Its not all things to all people, not does it make sense in all CRM opportunities, but there is no competitor out there that is as robust at what it does.  As long as they keep the price highly competitve, they will remain a viable provider.

Yahoo seems to be fading in the rear-view mirror of Google, yet has some features that loyal users still favor.

Google's got its sights on the corporate desktop, so how does Microsoft intend to maintain its dominance.

Can this combination squeeze Google out of its explosive growth path?  I don't think so.

Video Conferencing Ready for Mainstream?

May 2, 2007

Cisco Teams with Fox For TelePresence Product Launch | www.marketingshift.com

Video conferencing has always been a nice idea.  Early experiments prior to 2000 were interesting novelties, but really not very practical.  Over the past several years, only the largest global corporations have had some success using video conferencing in limited scenarios.

Is video conferencing nearly ready for mainstream deployment in corporations?  If so, who will be the major providers of this specialized equipment?
