Today I had a interesting read on Laurence Hart’s blog.
He is missing a strategy for CenterStage from EMC. Andre Goodale has already responded to the post.
Sad, but it is hard to envision a future for CenterStage in a world where EMC does not pushing the product anymore and where Sharepoint seems to fill that gap.
It hurts if you think about where EMC collaboration team is coming from. eRoom was market leader, and we still have customers that keep buying eRoom licences over Sharepoint. However, that market leader position was lost with the decission to drop eRoom for CenterStage. Remember, eRoom did not receive any product development the last couple of years.
Now with CenterStage EMC is not longer the market leader, it is a newcomer. This newcomer product is lacking support from the corporate strategy. And this lack, probably, will define the way that CenterStage will go in the coming number of years.
I respect the hard work of the team around of Andrew but I assume this will be not enough when it is not aligned with the corporate strategy.
