Critical Praise for Consumption Economics

"The next wave of tech will be about truly energizing businesses of all sizes. Tech companies must work actively with IT departments to reduce capital and operating expenses and directly with business users to improve the agility of their organizations. Consumption Economics is the thinking person's guide on how to do just that."

Tod Nielsen
Co-President, VMware

"Tech companies take heed. While many see cloud computing as a new, incremental opportunity, Consumption Economics argues that the migration to the cloud could also drive commoditization, undermine captive relationships and pressure margins. Winners and losers will be shaped by organizational decisions made over the next two to four years, and Consumption Economics provides a step-by-step guidebook for driving the requisite organizational transformation. A must read for all technology executives."

A.M. (Toni) Sacconaghi, Jr.
Senior Research Analyst, Sanford C. Bernstein & Co.

"Cloud computing is fundamentally redefining how customers buy and adopt technology. Consumption Economics delivers powerful insights on the steps high tech companies must take to capitalize on this major market transition."

Bob Paul
Chief Executive Officer, Compuware

"Consumption Economics is a must read that calls out the powerful movement and tectonic shift that is transforming how all technology-based solutions will be sold."

Mike Smerklo
Chairman and CEO, ServiceSource
