Thrive Ultimatum Series Part I: The Digital You Must Do

By: Steven Zolman

2019 will present the 'C-Suite' with a Digital Transformation ultimatum.  Digital initiatives can no longer be ‘shelved’ or viewed as a future innovation that are delayed by a myriad of excuses. Organizations operating this way are often in survival mode, feeling encumbered by forces outside their control. 

But survival is no longer enough as consumers, businesses, and shareholders demand that organizations move past survival mode, to thrive mode and cross the chasm of digital change and disruption now.  Companies that recognize this imperative and act on it are succeeding in the digital age.  Those that decide to stay reactive and passive, are increasingly finding themselves looking up from the bottom of a deep chasm.

Click below to read more about the Thrive Ultimatum, and how the avoid the digital chasm.

Are SAP’s Indirect Use Charges Legal?

By: Robin Fry, ComputerWeekly

Many SAP customers have been disturbed by its insistence on charging for “indirect usage”.  Last year’s case against Diageo supported SAP’s position that access by users that were connecting to SAP systems indirectly was chargeable, even though SAP had no user metric for such use.

However, there is a basic question that is currently being examined in Germany: is SAP permitted, by European Union (EU) law, to charge for indirect usage when this is a necessary part of the program usage?

5 Q4 Sales Strategies Technology Suppliers Use Against You

‘The Most Wonderful Time of the Year’ is a popular holiday song that will start streaming in stores and elevators in many countries in the coming months of Q4.

Anecdotally, we believe most business leaders might say it’s the most *stressful* time of the year, especially for publicly traded companies – most of whom have their fiscal year end aligned with the calendar year end of December 31st.

Unfortunately, most technology suppliers add to that stress as they, too, are either ending their fiscal year and hence pushing hard to finish strong, or know its YOUR fiscal year- end and are pushing hard to capture more of your leftover and/or future budget dollars.
