Compensation Matters
The market for Compensation Systems can be characterized as in the “early market” stage of the Technology Adoption Life Cycle , as it combines Enterprise Performance Management (EPM) offerings with Web 2.0/Social Networking aspects of web applications.
Merging of solutions in the Compensation/Performance systems market implies that customers may choose from substitute products like Enterprise Platform Providers (Portals / Intranets, CMS, CRM, LMS & Talent Mgmt Suites), Consumer Social Software Sites (Facebook, LinkedIn, MySpace, NING) or Add-On Social Software Providers.
