The second Forrester Wave covering data preparation arrives at a time of huge growth and momentum in the category, with companies increasingly focused on not only adopting data preparation platforms, but also hardening the workflows and processes already in place. It’s this shift that has driven a 3x increase in customer count year over year for Trifacta in the past two years as it expands its global reach and traction within key data-intensive industries like financial services, healthcare and life sciences.

According to the report: “Customer references can’t say enough about Trifacta’s ease of use, citing that ‘a beginner is typically using Trifacta after 2 to 3 hours of training,’ that the platform is ‘intuitive to use,’ and that it ‘profiles the data automatically and ... enables us to identify outliers easily.’”1 Trifacta views this accolade as a key milestone recognizing its leadership position in the data preparation market, and its unique strengths as a provider solving the challenges of manual and code-based approaches to data preparation.

“At Trifacta, we are extremely proud to have been recognized as a leader in data preparation technology in every independent analyst study on the market. In our view, it’s great validation of our focus on putting data preparation capabilities into the hands of those who know the data best—analysts—to enable organizations to get the most out of their data,” said Adam Wilson, CEO of Trifacta. “I believe that this recognition from Forrester is a testament to that commitment, and to our ability to deliver a best-in-class solution that truly democratizes data preparation. We are proud to enable data professionals at enterprise companies around the world to improve efficiency and uncover new value in their data.”

This ranking as a leader from Forrester is the latest of many recognitions by leading technology analysts. Earlier this year, Trifacta was named No. 1 Data Preparation Technology in Ovum’s Decision Matrix for Self-Service Data Preparation. Prior to that, Dresner Advisory Services’ End User Data Preparation Survey ranked Trifacta the No. 1 data preparation vendor of 2018, the fourth year in a row. In the Gartner Research Market Guide for Data Preparation, Trifacta demonstrated support in all of the established capabilities for “Data Transformation, Blending and Modeling,” “Diverse Data Sources,” and “Data Exploration.” Trifacta is listed on Gartner Peer Insights and, as of October 2018, has 55 reviews with an average 4.7 out of 5 ranking.
