FUD?
Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt
FUD was first defined by Gene Amdahl after he
left IBM to found his own company, Amdahl "FUD
is the fear, uncertainty, and doubt that IBM
sales people instill in the minds of potential
customers who might be considering Amdahl
products." Eric S. Raymond speaks more about
this in The Jargon File "The idea, of course,
was to persuade buyers to go with safe IBM gear
rather than with competitors' equipment. This
implicit coercion was traditionally accomplished
by promising that Good Things would happen to
people who stuck with IBM, but Dark Shadows
loomed over the future of competitors' equipment
or software. After 1991 the term has become
generalized to refer to any kind of
disinformation used as a competitive weapon."

USM Questions
  • Why should we upgrade to Fusion?
  • What is the Fusion rollout schedule?
  • What is the driver for the development of
    Fusion? Is it increased functionality in the
    apps or simply a new approach to technology?
  • Will the PeopleSoft Internet Architecture be
    replaced? How does Fusion affect the development
    toolkit of PS?
  • Will we have to buy new hardware?
  • Will we need to change/upgrade my database?
    What is the Oracle stance on support for SQL
    server?
  • What does "end-of life" for PeopleSoft products
    really mean?
  • What commitment will Oracle make to assure that
    the transition to Fusion is more of an upgrade
    than a completely new implementation?
  • Will Oracle actively support the Higher Ed
    Users Group? Will Oracle continue to support a
    separate higher education annual conference?
  • What input will clients have in the discussion
    of which functionalities will go into Fusion from
    PeopleSoft and Oracle apps?

27
Questions
  • What kind of communication mechanisms will Oracle
    have in place to keep clients up to date on its
    decision making in this area?
  • Where is the official place to learn about
    Fusion? www.oracle.com/peoplesoft/index.
  • Are there any higher ed institutions signed on to
    be a Beta Site? Who are they? What is their
    implementation schedule?
  • Can we see the Product documentation, a
    demonstration of the Fusion system before we pay
    for it?
  • If the development of Fusion products takes
    longer than anticipated, what adjustments will be
    made to the PeopleSoft product retirement
    schedule for 8.9/9.0? Will there be an upgrade
    path from 8.9 directly to Fusion without going to
    9.0?
  • What commitment will the institutions have to
    make in terms of staffing, costs, timelines,
    readiness, etc? When will we know what impacts
    this transition will have on institutional
    budgets?
  • Will we need consultants to assist me?
  • When can our people be trained, and what training
    do they need? Functional? Technical?
  • What product set is Oracle currently selling to
    the Higher Education Market?

28
So What FUD Is On The Street?
  • Oracle is not committed to the higher education
    market
  • Education is one of the Top 10 strategic
    industries for Oracle
  • Dedicated industry focus teams in development
    marketing and sales
  • Dedicated product development organizationlargest
    in Oracle
  • Industry-specific leads in product strategy
  • Executive Advisory Boardonly industry in Oracle
    with this level of influence
  • Clear Process for Customer Input to Product
  • Product Advisory Groups
  • Product Advisory Councils
  • Executive Advisory Board

29
So What FUD Is On The Street?
  • Fusion is Confusion
  • Its a new technology and a new paradigm, we have
    a track record of bringing our customers along to
    the latest technology with 80 in eBusiness suite
    customers on the latest release.
  • 10 years ago higher education was slowly
    accepting the fact that client server technology
    was NOT risky Bleeding Edge technology. Oracle
    will continue to provide our customer with
    advance business solutions supporting by proven
    Leading Edge technology driven by market,
    competition and technical advances.
  • We are providing more insight into our technology
    and development plans than any other vendor at
    the risk or sharing proprietary and competitive
    knowledge

30
So What FUD Is On The Street?
  • Fusion will require a re-implementation
  • Oracle is committed and has a proven track record
    of providing upgrade paths successfully migrating
    our clients to the most current technology
    release
  • Oracle has adopted PeopleSoft Total Ownership
    Experience program which lead to
  • 40 Less time for vanilla application upgrades
  • 25 Less time for customized application upgrades
  • 80 Fewer steps to apply maintenance updates
  • 34 Fewer incoming calls per customer
  • 44 Less time to resolve and close support cases
