 | | | | | | | | | In the Oracle vs. SAP life sciences battle, Oracle gains a healthy lead
| Ed Scannell, Site Editor
Five years ago, Oracle and SAP were virtually tied for the top spot for revenues in the life sciences market. But with an aggressive acquisitions strategy and its business unit focused on selling to that market, Oracle has opened up some daylight with its archrival.
In a recent report listing the top 10 life sciences software vendors, IDC had Oracle on top with a 7.43% share of the $2.95 billion spent on life sciences software. SAP was second with 5.52%.
While SAP maintains a comfortable lead over third-place finisher SAS, SAP's preference for focusing on internal development rather than acquisitions, coupled with a number of key executives leaving its life sciences initiative, has resulted in slower revenue growth . . .
