SoftSummit 2012: The Technology Evolution – Staying Competitive and Agile
Technology continues to change and evolve at an unprecedented pace. The strategic importance of applications continues to grow and mature. Applications no longer just help the business—they run the business—and to software vendors and, increasingly, intelligent device manufacturers, they are the business. Yet most companies manage application usage tactically, if at all.
To compete and win today, software vendors and intelligent device manufacturers must go to market faster with differentiated products, ensure they are fairly compensated, make every dollar spent count and retain every single customer. All of this must be done while facing substantial competition and hurdles.
SoftSummit is the only conference that brings delves into the issues and challenges facing the software and intelligent device product lifecycle — and provides strategic guidance for staying competitive and agile in today’s fast-changing market. SoftSummit brings together industry analysts, thought-leaders, peers and colleagues from software vendors and intelligent device manufacturers facing these very challenges.

The 2011 Key Trends in Software Licensing and Pricing Survey, prepared with assistance from IDC, found that software vendors and their enterprise customers, increasingly challenged by the economy, are looking for better strategies to derive more value for their organizations through software licensing and pricing. While, not surprisingly, some of those strategies diverge between producers and consumers, many are complementary and serve to strengthen the positions of both.
