Siebel users: sit tight | The Register: "Siebel users concerned about the possible takeover of the CRM company by Oracle should sit tight and relax. So says a panel of JD Edwards and PeopleSoft users at the Oracle OpenWorld conference in San Francisco.
Oracle presented four cherry-picked users to the press, who supplied a rosy view of the convergent roads towards Fusion, the paths that will blend all of the company�s CRM products into one. All agreed that their experience is good so fa,r but concerns for the future still exist.
Mitch Myers, vice president of operations at F W Murphy, admitted that his initial concerns were that the PeopleSoft and JD Edwards acquisition would require a massive migration to Oracle. This has not been the case and the gentle migration to Fusion that Oracle now offers is an attractive proposition, he said.
Some fears still exist because of Siebel�s leading role in the CRM market. Users are worried that this will influence the shape that Fusion will take."
