Imran discusses his first hand experience being involved with analyst relations including involvement in the vendor response process and Raj shares his experience being solicited to pay in order to be considered in the report. Lastly, they discuss the serious caution that should be used by SAP customers when they use these reports as a decision point for choosing a new software vendor as it does not consider their unique circumstances
