Re: Must also play well with hardware...
@DHagar:

Can't agree more. Bringing all players to the table is really a key aspect. There should always be the team spirit between business and IT which should drive any intiative till the delivery. Often times we get caught up somewhere along the way and loose that spirit to less important things and progress takes a back seat at times.

Re: Must also play well with hardware...
@ms.akkineni, very true about the advantages for IT.  Actually no one can control all the dynamics anyway, so why not engage all the players to use the technology in ways that benefit them and contribute to the overall organization's goals and priorities - that is a much better structure than trying to control everyone.

@DHagar, @elizabethv:

Totally in alignment with you both. UX is really taking user engagement with IT to the next level. Thorogh that engagement business users feel like they are heard and hence take the control. That in turn would be better for IT because with control they become and act more accountable.

Re: Must also play well with hardware...
@elizabethv, good point on control.  It moves it beyond user acceptance.  If you truly want buy-in you need to give them control.

@ms.akkineni, and I think that trend will continue.  It opens the opportunity to another entire level and expands the use and value of the technology; it is not a zero-sum game.

Yep, I can foresee that trend.

UX is becoming a key game changer when it comes to winning vs loosing. It is good to see increasing number of dedicated UX teams enterprise wide lately.

@ms.akkineni, important focus.  The UX will differentiate the winners vs. the losers.  If you can't make the system work for Users, you will limit results, if not threaten the success of the project.

Re: Things people love, things people hate ...
@JohnBarnes, excellent assessment of the current environment and I share your view that open source will ultimately find its way - through performance. 

I further agree that IT decision makers are better than the past, but I still think there is a barrier in that there are limits to the capabilities of some to "architect" the solution they need, vs. purchase the latest "toys"; as you well point out.  Unless we further develop the skills of IT to design the solutions that truly fit their needs, we will buy the latest toys. 

Maybe those who get stuck with the toys that don't work will increasingly become obsolete - passed over by those who can deliver results.
