If you buy enterprise software, you most likely will be spending less, or no more, than you did last year. For what it says is the first time in years, a ChangeWave member survey shows negative growth for enterprise software spending for the first quarter of 2008. Better than 22 percent of members polled now say their company will spend less for software over the next 90 days compared to the previous 90 days.
For the time being, that will put some discretionary buying plans on hold, while some providers might do better by touting lower upfront cost or lower recurring cost or both. That ought to be good for providers of Web-based software as a service providers.
