The
Crown Jewel
When investment analysts asked Oracle Executive Chairman and CTO
Larry Ellison questions at the close of Oracle OpenWorld 2016, they
focused on Oracle's cloud software, platform, and infrastructure
businesses. One question focused on the competition: Why does
Oracle talk about Workday as its most important cloud application
competitor, when rival Salesforce.com is much bigger?
Ellison's answer: The size of the prize is much bigger for ERP
cloud applications, where Workday has an offering and Salesforce
doesn't. And Oracle has a more complete ERP suite than Workday,
since Oracle offers applications such as manufacturing and supply
chain that Workday doesn't. The ERP software-as-a-service
opportunity is so big for the same reason that SaaS is so
attractive for customers: The customer does less work, and the
provider does more. "You're not just buying a software license.
You're buying software plus storage, plus a network, plus servers,
plus service," Ellison said. "Of course, it's much larger. The
customer is getting much more." Read more of Ellison's
insights on ERP cloud here. |
