MOBILE - Chasing the Impossible Dream: GPS-Based Locations Indoors

Tuesday, Jul 22, 2014

MOBILE - Next Steps in Device Proliferation: Toward a Consumer Internet of Things (IoT)

Friday, Jul 18, 2014

ARTICLE: As the smartphone and tablet markets saturate and mature, device vendors and consumers are looking toward new smart connected devices that will expand the frontiers of usefulness and entertainment value, while driving growth for device vendors, software developers, software vendors and other adjacent market sectors. While “wearables,” portable devices that often interface with users’ smartphones, have attracted the greatest attention, TBR believes the larger potential market is in fixed devices in the home. The leader in this category is the Nest thermostat, offered by the Nest Labs, now a subsidiary of Google. We think the consumer IoT will complement and often lead the commercial IoT, and together, they will fuel a wave of innovation and expansion in all segments of IT.

MOBILE - Salesforce.com and its ecosystem evolve to address industry demands

Tuesday, Jul 29, 2014

ARTICLE: Salesforce.com relies on ISV Platform partners to develop and sell industry-specific applications Salesforce1 is the driving force behind the company’s industry applications play. Salesforce.com is taking a similar approach as Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Microsoft by leaving partners white spaces to build, sell and service industry-specific applications. While Salesforce and its platform competitors have the technical expertise and agility to build industry-specific applications in-house, building and supporting these applications increases R&D and sales and marketing costs — costs that Salesforce.com, in TBR’s opinion, is trying to reduce. Instead, leveraging partners to drive the majority of industry growth and ensure simple integration enables Salesforce.com to enter the industry applications market while improving profitability and leaving the risk to partners.

Monday, Feb 16, 2015

ARTICLE: Incumbent telecom operators in the U.S. face a new category of competitors that play by a different set of rules. These alternative network providers aim to disrupt the traditional telecom business model by lowering access costs and improving the user experience. Their motivations differ from incumbent telcos, which focus on monetizing their connectivity solutions. Rather, these alternative network providers view access as a sunk cost necessary to drive their other initiatives, such as digital advertising and e-commerce. The stakes are high because these market dynamics will shift the balance of power, money, and landscape makeup in coming years. Only the strongest and most nimble incumbent operators will survive the coming shakeout.
