Following TBR’s proven analytical paradigm, SBQ looks at 10 leading software vendors participating in critical software
segments, including ERP systems, CRM, SCM, SRM and BI applications, middleware, storage, database, management tools, and
client and server operating systems.
SBQ quarterly reports incorporate detailed analytical discussions of industry trends, competitive events, and vendor actions
as they relate to the quarterly performance of each company covered. Revenue, operating expense, and other highly granular
financial models are the foundation of our analyses. Our ability to identify companies' strengths and weaknesses, potential
risks, and windows of opportunity through a "business intelligence lens" provides our clients with critical metrics for
developing competitive and overall business action plans. These reports, coupled with interaction with our analysts, deliver
fundamental assessments of these companies, helping you evaluate the competitive landscape, identify and measure key partners,
and further hone business models and go-to-market strategies.
The SBQ service also provides a comparative SBQ Quarterly Benchmark Report, summarizing all pertinent metrics and Technology
Business Research positions for the companies tracked during the quarter. This quarterly report shows how these companies
compare and compete with one another, and positions them in the overall market. The SBQ Quarterly Benchmark Report expands on
the core 10 covered companies to include detailed metrics on an additional 14 companies.
