Leading Independent Research Firm Cites TIBCO as a Strong Performer in Insight Platform Report

PALO ALTO, CA--(Marketwired - Dec 8, 2016) - TIBCO Software Inc., a global leader in integration, API management, and analytics, today announced it has been named as a strong performer in The Forrester Wave™: Enterprise Insight Platform Suites, Q4 2016 report by Forrester Research. Forrester cited TIBCO for its "good customer reference ratings relative to other participants, especially in areas like insight execution, analytics tools, and runtime components." The research firm noted that businesses looking to build real-time systems of insight should consider TIBCO.

According to Forrester, "TIBCO focuses on real-time insight execution coupled with leading streaming and agile BI components. [Their] platform features deep integration between streaming, visual, and predictive analytics that will only get better next year. Furthermore, its open-source, fast-insights framework can help developers rapidly build solutions. TIBCO's OEM of Attivio® provides excellent data lake, governance, and search tools as well."

Announced last month, the TIBCO® Insight Platform helps businesses turn analytical insights into action, especially as they introduce IoT connected devices, which emit massive volumes of new, streaming data. For example, the Insight Platform can help analyze sensor data from IoT connected devices to find patterns that predict device failure to perform predictive maintenance, or monitor location information from connected vehicles to act on opportunities for route optimization. The Insight Platform enables users to build closed-loop systems of insight with visual, predictive, and streaming analytics. Businesses of all sizes and industries can benefit from interconnecting their tools with smart applications to automate actions and make intelligent decisions accordingly.

"We're happy to be included as a strong performer in The Forrester Wave: Enterprise Insight Platform Suites, Q4 2016 report," said Thomas Been, chief marketing officer, TIBCO. "We believe this report validates our efforts to create a comprehensive solution that strengthens our customers' businesses through interconnecting applications and augmenting intelligence. Our customers continue to be the driving force for enhancing our product offerings, which is why we're one of the first companies to develop an enterprise Insight Platform."

Forrester evaluated TIBCO Spotfire®, TIBCO StreamBase®, and TIBCO® Enterprise Runtime for R (TERR™) in its report, recognizing these products together as a Strong Performer in the Enterprise Insight evaluation. TIBCO Spotfire provides data wrangling, visualization, and predictive modeling to help users discover unique insights to support business decisions.
