These stats are given to us via our partners. Some of their names you have already hit on the head, others included companies like Ellucian with a huge part of the North America Higher Ed market, Hitech Systems with government/emergency services, Zafire with airlines, P2 with energy, etc. We have quite a few vendors who are very large and successful players in their respective verticals.

Daniel, In the "View from the Top by Andy Youniss", he list the following; 40% of US institutions of higher education 80% of Mexico’s emergency response systems 70% of North America’s largest independent insurance agencies 80% of automobile dealerships in North America 55% of Fortune 100 companies 50% of the top 400 energy-products companies Except for the Fortune 100 companies, it would seem that the others might be using packaged software. A list of these packages might be interesting. I'm not disputing the numbers but some explanation of how they were calculated would be nice to know. I have a vague idea about the auto dealers and higher education but not the others. I think this illustrates the "I never heard of Pick/multi-value software" comments we hear a lot of because the database is "hidden" from the users. BTW, maybe auto parts and many other wholesalers and retailers should be added to this list. Just my 2 cents, Don Robinson ________________________________ From: Daniel McGrath <[email protected]> To: "U2 Users List ([email protected])" <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, June 3, 2013 4:59 PM Subject: [U2] Recognition for Rocket and Rocket's U2 in dual rankings today!
