Swiss retailer Migros said to have killed a Duet pilot

by Volker Weber

According to Swiss publication Inside IT, Migros has cancelled a Duet pilot project due to massive difficulties. I find this quite interesting because I love to work with Swiss clients. They have a habit of doing things right. It may take a little more time, but they always strive for a perfect solution.

The article quotes an SAP spokesperson who says that there are currently 500 customers with 1 million users working with Duet. I will ask next year how many SAP has on Alloy.

Comments

Volker, do you take the SAP spokesperson's numbers at face value or would you apply a reality-check factor to them (and what would that factor convert the numbers to)? Your first paragraph suggests that Duet has serious issues, so if we trust the Swiss (and after all, knowing Francie, how can we not? :D), those numbers must be exaggerated?
