Vendor Evaluation

Business Intelligence Vendor Evaluation Services

Often companies waste millions of dollars attempting to implement solutions, only to find during User Acceptance Testing that selected tools are misaligned with business needs.  This typically occurs because inadequate time was spent evaluating the technology as it relates to the business processes it will facilitate. 

The cold hard truth is that each Business Intelligence tool has its own strengths and weaknesses.  Software vendors have all invested in impressive sales demonstrations and processes that make them seem very similar.  As a result, it has become more difficult to discern which tools are right for your organization.

Effective vendor evaluations require hands-on experience with the underlying technologies to uncover sometimes subtle, but essential differences.  These subtleties can make the difference between project success and failure.  In addition, technology must be evaluated not only from a technical perspective, but it must also conform to your current or planned business processes.
