List of Business Intelligence Vendors
November 3, 2014
I came across a write up called “Yellowfin a Top Performing Dashboard and Ad-Hoc Reporting BI Solution across Many Categories in BARC’s The BI Survey 14.” What I found useful about the article was the list of business intelligence vendors. I am familiar with the search companies that say there are in the business intelligence game. I am skeptical about this type of pivoting because these outfits are rarely in the automated collection business.
Here’s the list of companies in case you are tracking this market sector:
- Arcplan
- Bissantz
- BOARD
- Corporate Planning
- Cubeware
- Cyberscience
- Dimensional Insight
- Dundas
- Entrinsik
- Evidanza
- IBM Cognos BI
- Information Builders
- Microsoft Excel, Power products, and SSAS (!)
- MicroStrategy
- Oracle BI Foundation Suite
- Pentaho
- Phocas
- Pyramid Analytics
- Qlik
- SAP BusinessObjects Web Intelligence
- Tableau
- TARGIT
- Tibco
- Yellowfin.
No enterprise search vendors on this list. Is this more than a PR problem? Is it a credibility problem for search vendors who can flip from market to market without so much as a how de doo?
