The Forrester Wave: Enterprise Business Intelligence Platforms, Q3 2008
Category: Data Management
Tags: bi
Overview In Forrester's 151-criteria evaluation of enterprise Business Intelligence (BI) platform vendors, the paper found that IBM Cognos and SAP Business Objects maintain their leadership positions, while Oracle and SAS Institute move into leadership positions in enterprise BI thanks to the richness of their functionality, ability to scale, and the completeness of their corporate and product vision and strategy. Actuate, Information Builders, Microsoft, MicroStrategy, SAP, and a new entrant, TIBCO Spotfire, came out as Strong Performers following very closely on the heels of the Leaders, offering very respectable alternatives and a multitude of choices for Information and Knowledge Management (I&KM) professionals.
