They haven't been able to improve their brand persuasiveness much. Their brand recall is very high, but only some of it converts into likelihood of purchase. This is only natural because deciding which ERP to deploy is a strategic decision that requires a long time. Both brands have are gaining pull this year, i.e. more users switching into them than switching out. Brand loyalties across both are pretty high at 71 % for Oracle and 63% for SAP. Brand shifts to others are not very significant, which is obvious for this category.
