Infor does it again - Geaccckkkk!!
Get out your org chart software - here's another one of those complex third-party deals where a private equity group (Golden Gate Capital) affiliated with a software vendor (Infor) takes out a competitor (Geac) for a big chunk of money ($1 billion), and then shuffles the company's customers under the umbrella of the other vendor. In this case, it's serial acquirer Infor taking a play out of the SSA playbook. Read more here.

Your comparison of infor's strategy with that of ssa is inaccurate. Golden gate is the boneyard for software companies. All of SSA's acquistions have been dictated by a well defined product strategy not financial arbitrage. Golden gate now more resmbles a frankenstein's monster than a software comany. Revenues and debt both over $1 bliion!
Geaccck has no product that of ssa is
