"Last year saw the continuation of a long-term consolidation process in the
Slovak EAS market that has seen the big players establish solid positions.
Nothing short of a major merger or acquisition or the entry of a strong, global
provider is likely to change the current market landscape, and no such event is
expected in the foreseeable future. As yet, consolidation has done nothing to
shake SAP from its number one position in the market; however, this could
happen over time. The planned 2009 adoption of the euro in Slovakia will result
in system upgrades across all vertical markets and end-user segments which
should benefit all EAS vendors." - Hana Chmelova, Research Analyst, IDC CEMA
