Are there enough Oracle eAM users on this board to create a dedicated message board?

I would monitor the "Post About All Other CMMs/EAM Software" and check for an increase of discussions on the same software. Then, decide on a target number for the descision to open a new board or not.

For example, if from 41 discussions in the actual "other CMMS" board, 15 are around the same CMMS (or EAM) then It may be time to segregate them.

How many are required to be enough?

Looking at the posted discussions the next CMMS to earn its own board would be JDE (if the rule of "most mentioned CMMS" is valid. The poll I started did not gained as many replies than I thought.

Maybe other way to decide if another dedicated CMMS message board would be on number of installations or licenses sold; but for them you may have to check benchmarks published in trade magazines. Anyway, besides SAP R/3, Maximo and Datastream; who are the top sellers CMMS around?

Those three have 50% and ten more software houses have between 2-3% each then about 400 software houses divide the rest.

Oracle is JDE and Peoplesoft now so they are definitely #4 in terms of EAM market share.

As A JDE user it would be nice to have a seperate forum.
