I had chace to read today Forrester Report “The State of Enterprise Software 2009” by Heidi Lo, R “Ray” Wang, and Jean-Pierre Garbani.

The State of the art enterprise 2009

What made me worry? The following are three top software initiatives in organizations –

(1) Updating apps,

(2) Consolidating or rationalizing enterprise apps

(3) Deployment and use of collaboration technologies.

My point is that to change or update today’s PLM implementation is not a simple task.  If do not provide easy way to handle our PLM initiatives, we’ll become leagcy and will be “rationalized”…

What is your view on this?

when it comes to importance, with more than one-quarter (26%) of firms saying that updating and
modernizing key legacy apps is very important.
