The companies on this list are expected to be leaders in the Enterprise Business Portal or Enterprise Information Portal Business. Not surprisingly most of the biggest names in software are on this list and they and their partners can be expected to dominate the industry. Andy Warzecha, an analyst with industry research firm The Meta Group, said the market for enterprise business portals is set to rocket over the next couple of years, with vendors such as Microsoft Corp. (NasdaqNM:MSFT - news), Oracle Corp. (NasdaqNM:ORCL) and BEA Systems Inc. (NasdaqNM:BEAS) all vying to get their share of the pie. The overall market is estimated to be worth over $2 billion by 2003. The idea here is to give users a single entry point into their business applications from a familiar format style like those found on Web Portals like Yahoo. This interface should provide companies with a platform and technology to integrate their internal applications and extend those over the Web to do business with their partners and suppliers. Sounds like a combination of e-Business Services, B2B Services and ASP Applications to us at the Bull Sector. This might be an excellent way to pull it all together.
