The day has come. I created a new personal blog page. Why? I feel the need to share my work related thoughts with the world. Well the world is, customers, my coworkers, fellow professionals and everybody who is interested in Software architecture, Sitecore and IT related subjects.
“It is about the solution, not software”. Let me explain: In the many years, I work in the IT business I met many technicians that are so enthusiastic about the technical part of their job that they tend to forget that what they do is solving a business challenge fore their customer.
I met so many sales people that dear not to speak up to customers. They give them cost cuts while knowing that the budgets are not sufficient. They do not want to fool the customer. However. They do.
Customers have limited budgets. It is also the case that people in charge of projects are held accountable for results and costs. Therefore, the tendency is that they want as much features as possible for the lowest budget possible.
The question is will they get the features that really add the most posible value to their business? It is our task as professionals to help customers to choose for business value instead of features. Business value is the goal. Software is the tool.
Therefore, the key of this first paragraphs I wrote will be the subject of every single blog post I will write . Sometimes it will be very technical. Sometimes I will write about processes. I will write a lot about Sitecore! In the end it will always be about how to help the customer to get the value out of the software that they need
