In particular, the report addresses issues such as:

  • What priorities drive the decision-making process when large and midsize firms and institutions buy business software applications and services?
  • What marketing investments will be most effective in building brand and improving competitive position?

Key topics highlighted in the report include:

  • How Customers Choose
  • Brand Equity
  • Effective Marketing
  • Purchasing Preferences
