Prism unveils mobileMIS

Professional Records and Information Services Management (Prism) has unveiled mobileMIS, a management information system which allows businesses to monitor their performance on mobile phones and browsers, writes Labels and Labeling

Management information such as job performance, machine status and order status can now be accessed from anywhere at any time, says the company.

“Business intelligence is the lifeblood of a successful company,” adds Filip Buyse, president and CEO of Prism.

Tibco has unveiled a business intelligence tool designed for the small business market that it is making available for free over the next year, says ReadWriteCloud.

The effort is said to be an appeal to a community that would not normally have access to its business intelligence technology.

These are people who understand social technologies and may find the service appealing for what it can do that spreadsheets do not.

During the announcement of its Q4 of 2010 earnings, Oracle revealed that its applications revenue grew by 5% compared to the same period a year ago, while SAP saw a negative 24% revenue growth, reports Trefis.

It would seem Oracle has started to take away SAP's market share. Oracle's past acquisitions have started to produce results, while SAP is losing ground due to over reliance on organic growth.

It is estimated that application software constitutes around 25% of Oracle's stock.
