The report, the industry's largest independent, international survey of BI users, recognized Information Builders for achieving top results and delivering business benefits to a wide array of users.

The BI Survey 13 evaluated Information Builders' BI platform, WebFOCUS, in three peer groups -- Large International Vendor, Enterprise Reporting, and Dashboard Vendor. The company was ranked highest on numerous key performance indicators (KPIs) in the Large International Vendor group, including business benefits, business achievement, user recommendation, and support, besting other large vendors such as IBM Cognos, QlikTech, MicroStrategy, and SAS. Information Builders was also ranked high in these categories in the Enterprise Reporting and Dashboard peer groups, demonstrating the strength of its platform across use cases, geographies, and customer implementations.

Information Builders was recognized for its high performance satisfaction scores in every peer group and was a leading Dashboard vendor likely to be chosen as standard by respondents in multi-product sites. The report also noted Information Builders' strength in self-service BI, highlighting that its flexible platform allows users to develop individual BI applications quickly. These rankings suggest that WebFOCUS can easily meet the information delivery needs of numerous stakeholders of varying degrees of technical abilities and data requirements.

"Information Builders achieves consistently good results across its peer groups, revealing that customers are achieving business benefits from its tools," said Dr. Carsten Bange, founder and CEO of BARC. "The company offers a highly flexible BI suite and has achieved good results in the business achievement category. It is remarkable that it performed better in this important category than all the larger vendors."

"Information Builders is committed to helping all stakeholders utilize business intelligence tools to optimize decision-making and improve performance," said Gerald Cohen, president and CEO of Information Builders. "As such, we're incredibly honored by our high rankings across all of our peer groups in the BI Survey. The results demonstrate that we're continuing to bring value to traditional BI users while also delivering self-service capabilities to non-technical business groups, as well as users outside of the firewall. As more organizations expand their information management strategies to encompass the needs of all internal and external parties, we believe the flexibility of our platform will continue to be a key competitive differentiator on a global scale."
