"The most powerful force in business today is inertia, the force that maintains the status quo and prevents change from happening. Legacy enterprise software platforms add layers of complexity like sediment in a riverbed, gradually restricting flow until innovation slows to a crawl. To break through inertia, you need a platform that moves at the speed of business, one that systematically removes complexity, not compounds it, and turns momentum back into your competitive advantage."
