Technology: Three Trends for Enterprise Software

By Dick Weisinger

Consultant Rashid Kahn recently summarized three trends that are sure to impact and change BPM software — something that he calls the 3 S’s:

  • Socialization
  • Simplicity
  • Software as a Service (SaaS)

Kahn’s notes these trends from the perspective of a BPM consultant, but these same three things are impacting every category of Enterprise Software.

Socialization is the integration of tools that enable closer collaboration and communication.
Software simplification will mean that rather than just a few skilled users, more users will be able to participate, driving the value of the software’s collaboration features.
SaaS will allow organizations to be more flexible and agile.  Rich-interface client-side technologies are making browser-based clients the rule rather than the exception.
