Data management has taken center stage at many organizations as many of today's companies recognize the benefits of treating data as a valuable corporate asset. At the same time, many organizations are encountering obstacles when it comes to integrating, managing and leveraging data. And this year companies face unique challenges, as many will attempt data management projects with scaled-back resources.
To help you narrow down the product field for business intelligence and data management tools and make worthwhile investments during these difficult times, SearchDataManagement.com put together a panel of experts who went over more than 60 of the top data management products to determine the "best of the best" in these key markets:
- Business intelligence and analytics
- Data integration
- Data quality
- Data warehousing
- Master data management
Our panel of eight judges carefully reviewed all entries in each category and ranked them based on the information submitted and their personal experience with the products. Judges used the following criteria to score each nominee:
- Innovation
- Performance
- Ease of integration into environment
- Ease of use and manageability
- Functionality
- Value
We hope that you find these awards useful as you navigate the ever-changing vendor landscape to make a successful purchasing decision for your organization. Congratulations to the winners -- and to all of the nominees, which gave our panel of judges quite a challenge.
