Pros
  • Interesting enterprise software niche and customer scenarios: Technology Business Management, looking to help companies manage, plan, and transform their (IT) business processes in ways that provide real value, all-up.

  • Enviable customer base, including over 1/3 of the Fortune 100 and significant mindshare and opportunity to impact at CIO levels.

  • Strong marketing organization and approach, including being the founding and key tech partner in the TBM Council (industry council).

  • Good dev culture: reasonable management, good team feel, willing to invest to improve productivity. Generally fulfilling and fun to be part of.

  • New apps are being built with modern technologies, with good reception from customers.

  • Still a relatively small company with a small-company feel.

Cons
  • Not as much "flash" potential or immediate customer volume in enterprise software versus consumer. A little more patience is required, but you get to know and grow your new apps with your customers better.
  • Some time was wasted in architectural churn a couple of years ago, but it's largely in the past now.
