Evaluation Is Based Upon Completeness of Vision and Ability to Execute
Barcelona, Spain (Feb. 07, 2013) – Today at the Gartner Business Intelligence and Analytics Summit in Barcelona, Information Builders, a leader in business intelligence (BI) and analytics, information integrity, and integration solutions, announced that it was positioned in the Leaders Quadrant of the firm’s “Magic Quadrant for Business Intelligence and Analytics Platforms.” The recognition is based on the evaluation of the company’s WebFOCUS BI solutions suite.
Strategic organizations are realizing the intrinsic value of deploying information to large numbers of people, both within the enterprise and to external customers, suppliers, and other parties. With its intuitive solutions and ability to support any number of concurrent users, Information Builders is uniquely positioned to help companies capitalize on this trend by better managing their data for the highest returns possible on their information investment.

“At Information Builders, we’ve noticed a trend of customers viewing their existing data as an investment in the same manner they might view financial or human capital,” said Gerald Cohen, president and CEO of Information Builders. “The best way to reap the ultimate reward from this information capital investment is by giving the entire spectrum of users – both internal and external – the necessary tools to conduct real-time data analysis, regardless of their technical expertise.
