6%-[Free] 'Collaborative Commerce': ERP, CRM, e-Proc, and SCM Unite! A Series Study: PeopleSoft (7 Pages)
by Randy Garland
Nov 26, 2001
Abstract : PeopleSoft has risen from its relatively humble origins in the Human Resource Management Systems (HRMS) arena, its sole focus as it begun life in 1987. Over the course of a decade or so, it added Supply Chain Management and Financials to its list of application offerings. In the last few years, in the face of slowing cash flows from its traditional strongholds, it has gone full bore toward Internet-based enterprise-wide - even cross-enterprise - solutions, trying to enter the game and be competitive with other top tier ERP-turned Collaborative Commerce vendors. Showing fiscal growth and, very-recently, notably-improved market acceptance, Peoplesoft may be the enterprise software turnaround story of the last decade.

6%-[Free] 'Collaborative Commerce': ERP, CRM, e-Proc, and SCM Unite! A Series Study: Oracle (8 Pages)
by Randy Garland
Nov 22, 2001
Abstract : There are two ways to build enterprise application solutions: link together disparate, best-of-breed solutions, in which vendors embrace open architectures and inter-application messaging protocols, or find a one-stop-shop with all the software, functionality, and interoperability one could ever ask for. Oracle insists the latter is the best way, and it is their way. But is it best for Collaborative-Commerce? Is their vision of C-Commerce and interoperability yours as well?

6%-[CRM] Shall Bifurcated Tack Reverse J.D. Edwards’ Bad Spell? (4 Pages)
by P.J. Jakovljevic
Oct 2, 2001
Abstract : By opting now for a “best of both worlds strategy,” J.D. Edwards might finally have a formula of getting out of the doldrums it has been in for some time. While maintaining product flexibility, it can now provide its own ‘must have’ applications (e.g. SCM and CRM), and offer, through partnerships, the secondarily important bolt-on’s.

6%-[Free] 'Collaborative Commerce': ERP, CRM, e-Proc, and SCM Unite! A Series Study: SAP AG ( Pages)
by Randy Garland
Sep 22, 2001
Abstract : SAP AG has seemingly crossed a strategy chasm, from a strict, stodgy, Not-Invented-Here (NIH) approach to software development and delivery, to a seemingly quite open approach of broad development alliances, company acquisitions, Internet portals development, and a deep, new relationship with IBM for both technology sharing as well as bolstering IBM Consulting’s support for SAP’s new multiple mySAP.com™ initiatives. 'Collaborative' and 'SAP' were not two words you might have ever seen in the same article. You’re seeing it now.

Q: What is a Knowledge Base?
A: A Knowledge Base is a repository of information created by
intense research gathering, and organized in a comprehensive
Decision Hierarchy. Our Knowledge Bases are created with the intent
of covering all aspects of the evaluation in question including crm - not just features
and functionality. Storing vendor data in a Decision Hierarchy
allows us to effectively organize business needs and lets the users
focus on their priorities at the level of detail of their choosing.
In addition to an organized view of all aspects in their evaluation
- a Knowledge Base permits the storage of notes, comments, and other
relevant information at each level of the Decision Hierarchy. It
encompasses all of the vendor information, ratings, and is also where
your personalized priorities are stored. We are also building archives
on crm.
In short, we've fashioned a customer-centered decision-making process that has quickly
become the industry standard by making third party analyzed data readily available on
the Internet. IT decision makers and software solution providers alike have grown to
rely on us for our unbiased and accurate assessment of the leading software product's
features and functionalities relative to their needs including crm.
 TEC was coined "the Rolls-Royce of decision support tools" by ZDNet
Q: How different is the TEC Evaluation Center from
other sites with superimposed vendors' data (features/functions)?
A: The main difference is the fact the TEC Evaluation
Center relating to crm uses a combination of extensive vendor analysis
coupled with the powerful analytical capabilities of
eBestMatch™. Vendor data is third party evaluated and is
fully impartial. The depth of analysis goes far beyond
features and functions; it includes elements such
as Corporate Strategy, Flexibility and Viability.
This gives all vendors an equal playing field. When
this data is entered into our Knowledge Base
and viewed through the eBestMatch™ engine, it becomes
an invaluable tool for analysis -“the Rolls
Royce of Decision Analysis Software”(ZDNet).
