Business intelligence market analysisProduct Type: Market Research ReportPublished by: Ovum Plc Published: July 2006 Product Code: R464-130 Description A number of high-profile industries’ surveys continue to rank business intelligence (BI) as one of the top priorities for CIOs over the next year, which is borne out by the healthy and robust growth rates of the BI platform market in the last 12-18 months in comparison to other segments of the software market. This growth can be attributed to the use of BI technology to address three broad business drivers: reducing exposure to risk, reducing costs and driving competitive advantage. Business intelligence has a pivotal role to play for companies trying to respond to these drivers. Organisations are seeking to drive more value from their existing BI investments.Table of Contents Key messagesBI continues to be CIO priority Further market consolidation within the independent BI sector Data integration, pricing and ease of use - prohibitors to mass BI adoption Operational BI - brings new demands for vendors BI and search - a small step towards convergence Early days in the SaaS BI market Open source BI - a realistic enterprise alternative?
