TheInfoPro

TheInfoPro’s cloud research informs your decisions on vendors, products and solutions for software, platform and infrastructure as a service and the underlying decision criteria and technologies. Each cloud study will conduct many one-on-one interviews with key cloud decision makers – business unit leaders, application development managers, and infrastructure managers and architects. The ‘voice of the customer’ is then distilled into actionable business intelligence by our research associates under the guidance of our managing director. Within the cloud research service, TheInfoPro provides a full suite of research reports on technology roadmaps, spending plans and vendor performance ratings, plus personalized reports and periodic Insight reports drilling deeper into specific topics. Our managing director is also available for inquiry discussions exploring the impacts of the intelligence, and for reviewing resulting action plans.
