DD,
I notice you post a lot here. Are you familiar with the RMDY product as a user?
I talked to my broker today and he wanted me to look into rmdy. I evaluated rmdy a few years ago and decided not to invest. My reasoning then, was that after looking into the rmdy product, I saw nothing there that indicated there was any real innovation/creativity going on - and with all this competition, I thought the rmdy pricing was too high.
But that was 3 years ago. What are they doing today? You know, I have always thought that managing vendor releases, patches, compatibilities etc. in your own enterprise was a huge problem for IS support. OK so say rmdy was aggressive in giving a rmdy component to sw vendors (like Orcl,baan,etc) where the vendor would update recent patch info and compatibilites. Vendors want to do this, they waste $$ disseminating release issues. Rmdy would then automatically update all the rmdy installations with this info (informational only) over the internet. Of course the next step would be actual patch updates, etc using marimba or something that rmdy could track. Or if you have a critical bug affecting every customer vendors could use the rmdy interface to communicate to the help desks of the world.
I don't know, stupid ideas maybe but the point is, who at rmdy is dreaming up innovative applications for this product? To me, rmdy seems like something a bunch of executives dreamed up after reading a Gartner group study.
