Before being acquired by BMC Software, Alf ( @aeroprise) and I would hang out by the Ganesh totem (an explanation of that another time) at Aeroprise and solve the world’s problems.

By Dan Turchin, chief executive officer and co-founder of Aeroprise. Follow Dan on Twitter. These days we can’t scratch an itch let alone buy a latte without announcing where and why we did it.

By Dan Turchin, chief executive officer and co-founder of Aeroprise. Follow Dan on Twitter. “Struggling predator Microsoft corners wounded prey in too-little-too-late bid to salvage futile mobile strategy.” Headline describing last week’s Elop-Ballmer Nokia-Windows Phone 7 announcement? Or 2006 headline describing the Palm-Microsoft tryst? The parallels are eerie. The result will be the same. Palm was mortally wounded then [...] -

By Dan Turchin, CEO of Aeroprise. Follow Dan on Twitter. There was a time when “enterprise” and “mobile” were rarely seen together – only in the shadowy recesses of IT drudgery like ashamed lovers forced to elope or endure the paternal humiliation of CFO scrutiny.

At the propaganda-fest that was the Windows Phone 7 Launch I watched a battle-scarred Microsoftie show off the (much-improved!) home screen to oohs and aahs.

Dan Turchin from Aeroprise commented on the blog post Why You Need a Mobile Help Desk · View
Well said. Required reading for anyone who gets what’s required to deliver modern customer service. IT must be as or more agile than the business users it supports.
