I hate the way enterprise IT industry analysts see the world.
That’s hard for me to say as I am one of those analysts. But it’s something that I not only feel myself, but that I hear (in various forms) from tech vendors and enterprise IT execs alike — all the time.
The reason the analyst’s view of the market is so unsatisfying isn’t hard to decipher. Their objective is to break this massive market down into evermore narrow categories so that they can compare vendors and create the nice little graphs that every tech vendor clamors to be included within.
