Talk:Enterprise software

message: I noticed a citation was needed for the usage of the adjective "enterprisey". I'm not sure if The Daily WTF would count, but here are two example that mock "Enterprise" software and use the word "enterprisey": http://thedailywtf.com/Articles/The-Enterprisey-Null-Test.aspx http://thedailywtf.com/Articles/Enterprise_SQL.aspx -- Christopher C.

message: The first sentence of the article doesn't really say anything. It basically says "enterprise software is software for enterprise stuff". —Memotype::T 15:05, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Cyclical definition? 

message: The start of this article is downright silly. Yes, it is true in that Enterprise Software is sold to enterprises but that is not a good definition. F.ex MSWord is bought by enterprises but is not an enterprise software. "Enterprise software" is software specialized in the needs of enterprise. As f.ex combining different business applications into a bigger system.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mawess (talk • contribs) 15:51, 25 September 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Silly definition 

message: While it seems quite reasonable to me that "performance, scalability, and robustness" are important aspects of enterprise software, I couldnt find any proper source for that statement. Is there any source, or should that statement maybe removed? Nils schmidt hamburg (talk) 10:09, 2 May 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Missing sources for performance, scalability, and robustness? 

message: In the software business, an "enterprise" is not just any organization, but rather a large organization -- the exact definition is unclear, but typically small businesses are not considered enterprises (though confusingly in many countries, small businesses are called small and medium enterprises. --Macrakis (talk) 23:10, 6 May 2013 (UTC)
thread_title: Definition of "Enterprise"

message: This article reads like it was written by someone whose first language is not English. Almost every sentence is overly long and awkward with bizarre grammatical errors. It should probably be re-written from scratch  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.182.134.2 (talk) 22:30, 26 November 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: It seems that most of these errors have been corrected, so I see no need to re-write the article. Jarble (talk) 17:56, 8 May 2017 (UTC)
