When it comes to selecting new technology for your enterprise, we routinely get two types of questions from our subscribers:

1. How do I get the right shortlist of vendors to consider?

2. How does vendor X compare to vendor Y?

In an effort to help you better answer these questions, I'm thrilled to announce the launch of two new applications designed to get you real-time answers:

• Realtime: Shortlist Generator^TM: This is version 2 of our shortlist building application. We've received great feedback from subscribers since we launched version 1 of this application a few years ago. Recently, we've made some usability and stability improvements that make it a much more effective shortlist building experience.
• Realtime Vendor Comparison Tool^TM: with this new application, you can choose any two (or more) vendors within one of our research areas to see how they stack up head-to-head. For example, you can quickly see how your incumbent vendor stacks up versus its competitors in the market.

With both of these tools, you can generate your own custom research report based on the results of your searches.

Subscribers, you can build your own shortlists and head-to-head vendor comparisons now. If you are thinking about subscribing, you can try either tool here to get a sense of how they work.

We are actively working on more enhancements to both applications so stay tuned for even more ways to interact with the most unfiltered analysis on the market...
