SUNNYVALE, CA--(Marketwire - May 18, 2010) -  Lixto Software, a leader in web data extraction and analysis, has been mentioned in a recent Gartner research note entitled "Powering Price Management With Market Intelligence," May 5, 2010 by Noha Tohamy, vice president, supply chain research at Gartner. 

According to Gartner, "Data has been the Achilles' heel for price management technology. Companies rarely have all the necessary data to generate the price that optimizes profitability for a product or service, given current market conditions. As price management and optimization solutions become mission critical for conducting profitable business, offering up-to-date and accurate competitive information is a prerequisite."

Commenting on the Gartner findings, Lixto Software's managing director and EVP of North America, Christian Koestler said, "We are very pleased that Gartner has recognized the significance of accurate competitive price intelligence to achieve effective price & margin management. We believe Lixto is a key vendor helping business to gain critical competitive advantage from real-time price intelligence in online channels.
