Analyst Q&A: What the Analysts Who Cover OpenStack *Really* Think
Analyst

Have you ever wondered what analysts are really thinking as they listen to your briefing and review your communications?  Our panel of analysts will hold up a mirror to our communications efforts, providing direct and unvarnished feedback. We’ll find out: 

  • What works and what doesn't when talking about OpenStack positioning and posturing?
  • What are the top pet peeves analysts have when talking to vendors and users?
  • Who is doing the best job right now of talking about their OpenStack game plan in clear, consistent and pointed language?  What best practices are worth emulating?
  • What are the nagging questions that analysts wish they could get straight answers to?
  • What do analysts wish people in the OpenStack community would stop saying?

Join us and be prepared to talk about what's on your mind. It's a great opportunity to get direct answers from the folks who are usually asking the questions.  

Panelists:

  • Dr. Paul Miller, Forrester, UK
  • Steve O’Grady, RedMonk, US 
  • Roz Roseboro, Heavy Reading, US
  • Colm Keegan, ESG, US
