Editor's Notes
- #2 This is the Experience Landscape. The data is based on thousands of customer reviews and is normalized on a scale of 0-5.The Blackberry Storm launched in Nov 2008 expecting to track with iPhone, but it didn’t. RIM was not measuring the user experience. Needless to say…the shipments were lower than expected. RIM saw zero growth in shipments due to weak demand for Storm. The cost of having inventory can disappoint when users are not enjoying the experience. RIM could have leveraged experience-based measures to build a competitive product and maintain leadership in the smartphone market. By monitoring market response to the Storm, RIM could have and both slowed production and targeted firmware upgrades on issues that matter most to customers.
