BSM Lite

This was a quote that I pulled from Network World story http://www.networkworld.com/community/node/27818#comment-181935 . I'm really glad to see this kind of story and in particular this quote from this story:

"The world needs what we'll call BSM Lite–a simpler, less expensive, more responsive way of achieving BSM. Remember that Doug McClure says BSM should be achieved at least as much through people and how they are organized and motivated as through technology. Enterprises can achieve BSM with a combination of modest tool investments and smart, properly tuned organizations. Although BSM Lite will not come easily or quickly, it should carry a smaller price tag. It will start to show business/IT linkage using targeted views that grow into the big picture over time. "

 

The FireScope team agrees that BSM should be "simpler and less expensive". This promise will be delivered, soon there will be an alternative to the big 4 and the company who claims they are BSM:
