For Sale: One Careful Owner
Adrian J Cotterill, Editor-in-Chief
We keep hearing persistent rumours that John Ryan’s ScreenRed software (division) is up for sale.
John Ryan have a great business in the retail banking sector and we never, ever saw the (natural) fit that parts of that organisation did with having their own software section (even though as we have written before we are BIG fans of their software solution).
Whatever is happening with ScreenRed it is certainly not getting the love or attention it deserves – which means that when we get asked to recommend solutions to potential customers, it is easy or ignore them or put someone else above them in the pecking order.
Their web site still lists the following as part of the Executive team even though they both left before Christmas 2007…
