Different from other products, software customers often cannot vary their required usage volume, a property we label local demand inelasticity. For instance, a client firm that needs a salesforce automation software...

While prior research has examined the role of Information Technology (IT) investments in the process and performance of innovation, there is relatively little research on the business value of software innovation itself. In particular, whether a firm's software innovation affects the market...
