And So Begins the End of this SaaS M&A Cycle

And So Begins the End of this SaaS M&A Cycle

By Jason M. Lemkin on October 25, 2012

… and hence the acquisition dies due to excessive capital requirements. It’s almost impossible to blend a profitable entity with a new acquisition that is burning tens of more millions per year, unless it’s a total make-the-company bet like Android.

Will “Mad Men” Drive the Social Enterprise?

Will “Mad Men” Drive the Social Enterprise?

By John Taschek on September 15, 2011

Note this is a special guest post from industry authority Bruce Richardson. His blog can be found at http://stellwagenresearch.blogspot.com/. Bruce has a 30-year career in high-tech, harkening back to the days in which he worked alongside George Colony (founder and CEO of Forrester), Frank Gens (Chief Research Officer of IDC),…

Dreamforce 2011: Salesforce Not Only Matures But Has Plans For Enterprise Domination

Dreamforce 2011: Salesforce Not Only Matures But Has Plans For Enterprise Domination

By Krishnan Subramanian on September 6, 2011

Last week I attended Dreamforce 2011, Salesforce’s (previous CloudAve coverage) annual user conference which exceeded 40K attendees this year, and the blogosphere is already filled with Dreamforce posts. I am adding one more to the mix and I want to apologize straight away for my contribution to the echo chamber. I will try my best […]

Number 9 Dreamforce

Number 9 Dreamforce

By John Taschek on August 31, 2011

For a Beatles’ fan and a fan particularly of John Lennon, the number 9 has an important meaning. It has enough meaning Lennon wrote a few songs referencing it, including Number 9 Dream. Perhaps I like Number 9 Dream because it seems to be, quite literally, calling my name on the background vocal track. But […]

Is Dell the World’s Most Social Company? (Scorecard)

Is Dell the World’s Most Social Company? (Scorecard)

By Mark Fidelman on June 2, 2011

“What the heck are you doing?” Yet the language was probably a little more colorful.  Three days after the launch of Chief Blogger Lionel Menchaca’s blog, all hell broke loose. Several people within Dell were upset with him for linking to Engadget story about exploding laptops. But Menchaca wasn’t worried about being fired.  He had […]

The Blending of Marketing and IT

The Blending of Marketing and IT

By Guest Authors on September 15, 2009

There are a couple of posts out today about Jive and Radian6 partnering around a solution that begins to bridge the chasm of social media and enterprise 2.0 that I’ve written about here in the past. I’m glad to see companies like Jive (who should be a defrag sponsor, but isn’t – yet – AHEM!), […]

MeltWaterBuzz – First Up to the Plate

MeltWaterBuzz – First Up to the Plate

By Ben Kepes on August 11, 2009

A few days ago I posted about the seeming lack of mid-level social media monitoring tools that span the divide between standard searches and the big boys of social monitoring. To their credit, one of the first to respond to my post, and associated tweets, was MeltWaterBuzz, the monitoring service provided by MeltWater group, a […]

Social Monitoring – Exploring the Midspace

Social Monitoring – Exploring the Midspace

By Ben Kepes on August 6, 2009

I received an email from a friend the other day who was searching for a social media monitoring service for the company he works for – they’re a few years old, have a few thousand customers and are generating enough “buzz” to warrant more than the basic Google search, Twitter search routine. The next step […]

Radian6 – Aggregating Opinion

Radian6 – Aggregating Opinion

By Ben Kepes on July 7, 2009

I’ve long been a proponent of new web plays looking to find an offering that aggregate rather than create content. In this world there is no end of data available to us but what we lack is ways to aggregate that data, obtain analysis from it and, at the end of the day, derive insight […]
