Disclosure
In case I forget to disclose my interests every time that I mention a vendor, here’s the list of those who are currently my customers or have been so in the recent past:
- Active Endpoints
- BP Logix
- Global 360
- IBM
- Invensys/Skelta
- Pegasystems
- Progress/Savvion
- Software AG
As an analyst for these companies, I’m typically involved in tasks such as reviewing product direction and marketing strategy, writing white papers and research reports, creating and delivering webinars, and making “industry expert” presentations at their user conferences. However, since the other half of my business is working for end-customer organizations where I am hired for my vendor-neutral position, I’m not involved in the sale of any vendor’s products, nor am I compensated in any way for their sales.
I don’t offer any sort of favoritism to those companies in my writing, they have no control over what I write here, and I’m not compensated in any way for writing about them on this blog. Obviously, they get a bit of extra coverage when I present a webinar for them or attend their user conference since I blog about those events.
I also go to other vendors’ user conferences where they cover my travel expenses and I blog about the conference, but I don’t consider them to be my clients.
