Application Suite Advantage: AI Is the Opportunity to Gain More Market Share


This IDC Market Perspective looks at the opportunity enterprise application technology providers have with embedded AI processes and the trajectory that can quickly be gained when the product road map is aligned to the buying organization's application portfolio. Embedded AI is critical in the enterprise application–buying decisions of organizations globally. Without embedded AI, enterprise application vendors may lose customers. Embedded AI offers an opportunity to bring more clients on board, move beyond just one or two functional areas within the offering, and broaden the cross-portfolio/functional workflows. "Enterprise application–buying organizations are making decisions to invest when embedded AI is part of the product offering. Unfortunately, many enterprise application vendors are still struggling to embed AI across their portfolio of products. A large segment of enterprise technology vendors are stuck in the proof of concept of just one functional process within an application versus looking at their full portfolio or other lines of business processes that might be similar," said Mickey North Rizza, group vice president, Enterprise Software at IDC. "Once embedded AI takes hold, the buying organizations will want to consume even more quickly. This helps bring forward more autonomous workflows aiding the employee to work more efficiently and collaboratively with their digital coworker. The time is ripe for enterprise application vendors to use embedded AI as an opportunity to build their future market share."

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
