Bumper week for TechMarketView

TMV LogoBumper week for TechMarketView in the Press

Our comments on Sage failing to recruit an outsider as CEO, particularly Anthony Miller’s quote “Surely what Sage needs now is a highly disruptive transition!” were carried throughout the world on BBC News, Reuters, Financial Times et al. Probably didn’t win us too many friends at Sage but that has never really influenced our views in the past either.

Tola Sargeant’s comments on the effects of the BSF cutbacks are almost too numerous to mention. Try these in Computer Weekly or ComputerWorld. Georgina O’Toole’s comments on the cutbacks to be inflicted by Francis Maude also received much comment. Eg CIO Network and NetworkWorld.

The bumper week ended with an excellent full page article by James Ashton in the Sunday Times – On Her Majesty’s Shrinking Service. This exposé on the ‘fortunes’ of the outsourcers under the new Coalition regime had some fine quotes from our Anthony Miller. Unfortunately these are forever hidden behind the Times ‘paywall’.

Bumper week for HotViews

Friday’s edition of HotViews was something of a record – 15 separate posts. That’s 830 posts in 2010 YTD and now around 3000 in the archive.

The Hotviews archive really is the most valuable repository of knowledge and views. We might be a bit biased but we never do anything without searching the archive for past views on a company or topic. Hugely valuable and only available to our paying Foundation Service clients.

Bumper week for HotViews Extra

HotViews Extra is emailed in the afternoons and contains longer, more considered posts on the results or events of the day. This week’s HotViews Extra posts included Capita, a roundup of US software company results and an in-depth look at the non renewal of Microsoft’s enterprise deal with the NHS.  Again, HotViews Extra is only available to our Foundation Service clients.

Bumper week for new TechMarketView research

As if that isn’t enough, the week ahead sees the publication of three MAJOR new TechMarketView reports in three of our major streams – MarketViews, SoftwareViews and PublicSectorViews. More details as they are published but remember these are only available to our Foundation Service clients.

To ‘join the club’ – and our client list now really is the ‘creme de la crème’ - just email prajah@techmarketview.com.
