Information Builders earned the highest overall score of 86 percent in the Manageability category, resulting in its designation as a Value Index Leader for the category. Manageability evaluation criteria are critical to the success of a project as they are intended to ensure that the product will meet both “business and IT needs for installation, deployment, and administration.” This includes IT administration and business support; security provisioning, audit and compliance capabilities; and requirements for licensing, subscriptions, or maintenance.
Information Builders was also named a Value Index Leader for industry-leading scores in the Capability and Reliability categories. The report noted Information Builders’ breadth of mobile capabilities available via WebFOCUS, allowing end users to interact with analytical content whether online or offline. This companion application to the company’s WebFOCUS BI and analytics platform supports organizations’ hybrid approach to BI and analytics with rich user experiences and collaboration on the go.

Frank J. Vella, chief executive officer, Information Builders, said:
“It’s no surprise that mobile BI and analytics is becoming an increasingly important element for data programs. Workforces need access to data for decision-making whenever and wherever they work.
