What do you dislike about Forrester?

The services you provide are excellent, so there's nothing to complain about Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Forrester solving and how is that benefiting you?

Keeping up with digital trends and transformations, evaluating market opportunities, and learning new categories. limited exposure too. In their capacity as observers of the space, Forrester analysts are quite knowledgeable, but the firm must still navigate all of the operational details since they are not current practitioners. Forrester is neither an implementation partner nor a consulting firm, but rather an information source. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Data transparency, validation of strategies, measuring the size of market opportunities, keeping up with digital trends and transformations, and learning new categories we have. limited exposure too. Their analysts are quite knowledgeable as observers in the space but a reminder that they are not current practitioners so the firm will still have to navigate all of the operational details as Forrester is not an implementation partner or a consulting firm they are an info source Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
