Well, this isn’t right. Without disclosing our 2004 revenue number, suffice it to say that SuccessFactors rightfully deserves to be called one of the "Top 25 on-demand providers" as determined by this IDC report. Phil Wainewright knows his stuff though. He very appropriately mentions that the report is "skewed by the omission of some potentially significant names."
I know you mean us, Phil.
It leaves me curious about IDC’s methodology…

Actually, I would probably agree with most of their methodology (even being an IDC competitor). As I look at the list though, quantify (revenue) doesn’t always mean quality as studies like these are really an apples and oranges comparison. I mean, come on, comparing Salesforce.com with Workstream is a joke!
