About ESG
IMPORTANT NOTE: A company using the name “ESG Research” is soliciting customers to take a phone survey to win a trip to the Bahamas. That is NOT Enterprise Strategy Group.
We apologize for any inconvenience you may have experienced, but ESG does NOT engage in these practices.
Message from the Founder
Steve Duplessie, ESG Founder and Senior Analyst, talks about what it means to provide “The Bigger Truth” for technology companies, IT end-users, institutional investors and the media.
Overview
“ESG is the only IT analyst site I have bookmarked in my favorites. They are smart, funny, and helpful.”
– Randy D. White, Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center Information Systems
Enterprise Strategy Group (ESG) is an integrated, full-service IT analyst and business strategy firm, world-renowned for forward-looking market intelligence, analysis, and consulting services that deliver proven, measurable results. Recognized as one of the world’s top 10 analyst firms by offering a unique blend of capabilities–including world-class market research, hands-on technical product testing, and expert consulting methodologies such as the ESG Strategy Lifecycle—ESG is relied upon by IT professionals, technology vendors, institutional investors, and the media for actionable IT and business intelligence.
Our Philosophy: The Bigger Truth
At ESG, we help organizations get to the bigger truth. We don’t just dispense opinions; we provide meaning. Our constituents gain a better understanding of technology trends and market dynamics—plus the support they need to take that vital step from meaning to action. Our help empowers them to capture emerging business opportunities–whether we’re teaching a company how to save millions adopting a new technology, identifying an as-yet unfulfilled customer need to a technology vendor, or changing the way the investment community interprets and values a market or opportunity.
Constituents and clients value ESG for the results we help them achieve. They also appreciate us for our approachability and the eagerness with which we roll up our sleeves and get our hands dirty. Our penchant for speaking candidly has long been a hallmark of ESG.
The 360° perspective
ESG is different. We occupy a unique place at the center of the IT ecosystem, as active participants with all the key constituencies: technology vendors, IT users, channel partners, the media, and the financial community. From our vantage point, we’re able to observe and construct a more comprehensive, detailed, and nuanced view of technologies, industries, and markets. We apply our unmatched 360° market perspective, research methodologies, and operational best practices in creating a holistic lifecycle approach to our strategic thinking — from business planning to product launches to customer adoption, application, and business impact.
This perspective means we’re able to quickly make key connections that may not be obvious to others. We can spot emerging trends faster, and see shifting needs earlier. As a result, our guidance is more meaningful, specific, and actionable.
Our Team: A full spectrum of expertise
That comprehensive view is complemented by ESG’s equally broad range of expertise, which includes direct experience in executive management, operations, product management, business analytics, channel development, finance, marketing, and sales at both major corporations and fledgling startups.
The ESG team has participated in the launch of countless companies, products, programs, and initiatives. We have led start-ups, directed personnel decisions, advised industry titans, engineered corporate turnarounds, and facilitated mergers and acquisitions.
Under one roof, we have the backstory, resources, and capabilities to provide an end-to-end solution for market intelligence, market expertise, market validation, and market execution. That makes us a source of both meaning and value to all our constituents throughout the ecosystem we serve.
We are all about getting to the bigger truth.
