As a user of a modern system (not from IRIS) on the marketing side and therefore not in the market, it's quite interesting to read this with 'no pressure' so to speak. Clearly I am a recipient of all the suppliers PR etc and I take an interest in the legal IT press. My observation on this is one from a marketing perspective. What do I mean, well I've no idea frankly how IRIS is doing financially & not being a client I'm not sure I care anyway. However, the fundamental thing here is that if you look back in the press over the last 6 months either IRIS has had no good news (wins, strategy, industry awards etc) or they have but haven't bothered to publish it. Either way as a marketing professional it appears that if it's the former then they are potentially in trouble or the later....well I'm not sure I'd be using their PR company any more or what's happened to their marketing team?
