BOARD Positioned in 2011 Magic Quadrant for Business Intelligence Platforms

BOARD International, the global leader in the Business Intelligence (BI) and Corporate Performance Management (CPM) toolkit space, announces that it has been positioned in the Gartner 2011 Magic Quadrant for Business Intelligence Platforms.*

London, United Kingdom, February 11, 2011 --(PR.com)-- The Magic Quadrant for Business Intelligence Platforms presents a global view of Gartner's opinion of software vendors that should be considered by organizations seeking to use business intelligence (BI) platforms applications.

The research evaluates vendors by their completeness of vision and ability to execute on that vision.

BOARD was one of 20 platforms evaluated in the report worldwide.

“In a market where we see more and more customers disillusioned with the solutions they are using and frustrated by the integration problems they are experiencing, we believe Gartner’s recognition reflects our capability to successfully help more than 2000 International organizations manage and control the entire decision-making process: from data collection to information analysis; from goal-setting to decision-making; from operational execution, to results monitoring,” comments Giovanni Grossi, BOARD CEO. “Unlike other competitors we seamlessly unify BI and CPM in a single product, combining Advanced Office Integration, Interactive Visualization, Self-Service Reporting and Analysis with a great ease of use for both final users and developers.”

“BOARD continues to build momentum, with an above average growth in the BI market and our customers are more and more satisfied with the latest innovations” points out Andrea Alfieri, BOARD Head of Marketing “It’s not by chance that even in such a tough year as 2010 we maintained a double digit growth for the sixth time in a row.”

The Magic Quadrant for Business Intelligence Platforms is available on the website www.board.com, compliments of BOARD.
