Advances in the cloud have changed the way we interact with the world. From how we pay our bills to how we communicate to how we navigate city streets, the cloud’s arrival has proven disruptive to the old ways of doing things. In the realm of business software, there has been seismic shifts in the last two decades. Expensive, exceedingly complicated software that once was the purview of the few is now available to the masses, courtesy of the cloud and attendant improvements in technology. However, the abundance of choice in business software also leads to integration spaghetti. Thus the future of software lies in building deeply integrated, consolidated systems that are extraordinary in functionality yet affordable and easy to use.
