Pumped on Hot Air

Pros

Good smoke and mirrors marketing. Good engineering on the ALM products.

Cons

The big data product is nothing more than demoware. The product is hacked together and has no real world experience in any production environment. They have a long history of telling people misleading information and claiming things that are just not true. The CEO is a self centered, arrogant manipulator and is surrounded by yes people. It is easy to check the information in press releases against the facts. They claim a bunch of customers and make you want to believe they are big data users when in reality they are all ALM customers. The CEO wants nothing more than to pump up the stock with misleading information and cash out.

Poor Sales Management

Pros

Great technology but the Big Data market is still in its infancy and the real customer need hasn't surfaced yet. Great acquisition target.

Cons

The problem is with Sales Management and as a result there is an abnormally high turnover rate of sales people due to panic selling and intense pressure to make quarterly numbers due to company financial distress.

Pros

Thinks looked promising for some time but market need never materialized as expected and products never delivered on their promise

Cons

Hard to see any hope for future. Sales have decreased for last several quarters. Doesn't appear to be demand for products in the marketplace. It doesn't matter how good of an idea you have if no really needs it,
