You forgot to mention that the Dallas Cowboys win their second playoff game in 20 years in 2017, but still lose their next game after that to continue their 22 years of missing the Super Bowl. So much for American’s team. LOL

(And the concept of a development admin tool went away) -- it is purely configuration and consulting to configure the product... (Traditional Remedy customer are unhappy - new customers don't know better - think they are eating a juicy steak - turns out it is pink slime) RemedyForce was taken over by Business.com<http://Business.com> (aka Salesforce.com<http://Salesforce.com>). RemedyOnDemand - still exists -- but is part of "Oracle Scalable Enterprise" - which everybody calls "Oh say ... can you see" -- because nobody can actually see it working... kind of a weird industry joke... (Still not sure about it -- I think 2021 humor goes over my head) Same timeframe -- Oracle renamed Remedy to "Oracle Enable" ... and it became really the "adhoc" business "back-office" apps generator.... SRM was abandoned by Oracle -- really BMC killed it before Oracle got it (circa 2011) - BMC just never told the customers. Of course Kinetic Data stayed independent and front-ends both Oracle Service Support and the Enable framework - keeping customers happy - regardless of the shenanigans behind the scenes... BTW - the MN Vikings still are without a Superbowl in 2021 :( Obama gets reelected. Republican gets elected 2016 -- does a fair job - but chooses not to rerun. Hillary gets 2020.

It was competition they wanted eliminated, IMHO based on their actions and the words at the Peregrine Synergy conference I attended in 2002. Whilst this current buyout looks less sinister in those terms, we of course need to wait to see how it all plays out. There is some talk that it will split off the mainframe from the rest, but I haven’t heard any rumours about what they want to do with both pieces. I think the Remedy brand and the ITSM product are too valuable for anyone to want to eliminate them, other than Service-Now, and I don’t think they have the financial resources to buy it.
