10 Why does B2B tech not feel like B2C? The question is why big B2B software solution providers have not changed and emulated B2C? Perhaps the following reasons: 1. Customer demand or acceptance. 2. Drive for consulting revenues by providers. 3. Decision makers equate complicated to valuable. 4. Industry Research organisations are in the pocket of those who pay and report as such. 5. Existing suppliers balance sheets stifle innovation or change due to the impact on profit of asset write downs. 6.
