Introduction Market Data Compact
What are people's thoughts on Vantive? I've heard nothing but great reports on them. Their PE's kinda high (120), but as far as I can tell, they have absolutely no competition. We've just installed their stuff in house and it looks great. Note that it doesn't look the the big guys such as SAP, Oracle, PeopleSoft, Baan, or DBS have any near term plans to compete in this market space. Also note that their daily trade volumes are still pretty low ... doesn't look like the big investors have looked at them yet.

Here's a quick overview from their web page:

The Vantive Corporation (NASDAQ: VNTV) is the fastest growing public software company in the emerging customer interaction software market. The company delivers award-winning products and services that allow companies to attract, retain and leverage customers by automating sales, marketing, customer support, defect tracking, field service and internal help desk functions.
