Adop>on
pa5erns
are
shiQing
towards
developers.
More
than
ever,
developers
can
block
–
or
significantly
aid
the
adop/on
of
soAware.
The
path
from
developer
to
customer
is
geSng
shorter.
To
win
you
must
drive
adop>on
and
affirma>on
through
developers.

One
of
the
implica>ons
of
the
fric>onless
model
is
that
it
relies
on
bo5om-‐up
adop>on.
So
you
are
targe>ng
not
the
CIO,
business
execu>ves
or
central
IT,
as
in
the
old
days
of
enterprise
soQware
sales,
but
on
the
rank
&
file,
whether
business
users,
IT
ops
personnel
or
developers….
developers
are
becoming
increasingly
important
when
marke/ng
your
soAware.

vendors,
open

or
not,
have
an
opportunity
to
secure
the
IT
execu/ve's
selec/on
vote
if
their
products
meet
the
needs
of
developers
and
other
key
stakeholders,
such
as
the
opera>ons
teams
and
administrators…
