Ovum: Save the last dance for SunGard Higher Education and Blackboard

Nicole Engelbert of Ovum published an article on the recent announcement from SunGard Higher Education and Blackboard. The article reads, “SunGard Higher Education and Blackboard recently announced a partnership designed to deliver better integration and support services to their common installed base of customers. Given the ascension of learning management solutions (LMS) to the institutional pantheon of mission-critical applications, a partnership between two of the largest players in the industry is not surprising. Nevertheless, if SunGard Higher Education and Blackboard have the wherewithal to execute it well and to push the boundaries of included solution areas, institutions should realize significant near-term and practical value from this new relationship."
