    The Operational GC: Don’t Let FOMO Make Your Success a No-Go Technology, Privacy, and eCommerce 1 / 11 2 / 11 Behind-the-scenes As GCs of high growth companies with limited legal headcount, we have seen the tremendous force multiplier that technology can bring to the law department. Unlike many software purchasers, however, we have also seen what goes on behind-the-scenes in tech sales because we have worked for companies that produce and sell enterprise software. There is often a major disconnect between how technology is marketed and what is actually delivered. The goal of this article is to help you become a savvier consumer of technology for your law department. The FUD problem People who work in the software industry are familiar with a marketing tactic: FUD, or Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt. In many industries, large players will do whatever it takes to keep out more innovative upstarts. The software field is no exception. A popular strategy for incumbents is to market the promise of forthcoming technology that does not quite exist, thereby sowing uncertainty and doubt in the mind of customers considering a competitive option and fear among would-be innovators. Often this strategy works perfectly for the incumbent, at the expense of the ever-waiting customer, who ultimately receives either a subpar product offering or perhaps something so soft that it should be named vaporware rather than software. Companies that wait for a promised future product from the giant incumbent are betting that the incumbent somehow possesses superior skills at solving problems due to its budget and the market share of its legacy offerings.
