Gartner says 75 percent of e-business will fail
According to this Information World report "A full 75 percent of all e-business projects will fail due to poor planning and unrealistic expectations of new technology, according to a study released Thursday by research firm Gartner Group. Most companies implementing e-business strategies don't fully understand the new technologies behind e-business, the study said. At the same time, they become so dazzled by those very technologies and turn away from old-fashioned business planning and strategies." (1999-09-25)
