5 Reasons NOT to Choose a [particular] Technology Solution

There’s a particularly great post at TechEssence by Ellyssa Kroski:

Whether we want to admit it or not, none of us is completely objective when it comes to choosing technology, or anything else for that matter. We attempt to collect and analyze an unbiased portrayal of the facts, but there are always outside influences which affect and shape our decisions. While carefully researched recommendations by respected publications go a long way to helping us with our decisions, one arresting tale from a colleague about terrible customer service and frequent down-time will send most of us into a 180° spin. How can we make solid decisions about technology for our organizations? One way is to keep in mind some common “soft spots” that people have when making these choices.

Read the whole excellent thing. It is filled with advice that should be reviewed and heeded by both both the techno-neophyte and the seasoned geek.
