ISG Provider Lens Reports Will Give Enterprise Clients Valuable Information When Choosing Service Providers
Information Services Group , a leading global technology research and advisory firm, has launched four research studies examining the service integration and management market, the financial and accounting outsourcing market, the Microsoft ecosystem market and the Salesforce ecosystem partner market.
The study results will be published in four comprehensive ISG Provider Lens reports in 2020. The new reports help enterprise clients make informed choices about the services providers they use, said Jan Erik Aase, director and global leader, ISG Provider Lens Research.
