These are all great points, Larry. As CIOs and IT buyers look to keep budgets tight, working with legacy vendors and having disparate or burdensome systems will only hurt business. We are seeing this even more with our own enterprise customers, as the bigger players like Oracle cannot provide enough support or flexibility of services to meet the ever present needs of CIOs today. The decision no longer includes considering how long to stay on board with a legacy system or megavendor; it is actually about how long a company wants to lose profits or customers.
