LONDON - (Business Wire) After fourteen years as the definitive web site for information about on-line analytical processing (OLAP) and business intelligence (BI) products, vendors, technologies and market analysis, The OLAP Report has been replaced by a new online resource – The BI Verdict. “The OLAP Report is making way for The BI Verdict to provide an improved and wider-ranging service to our customers.” revealed BARC’s founder and CEO, Carsten Bange.
“We will continue to publish the vendor-independent product reviews and market analysis which formed the cornerstone of The OLAP Report, but subscribers to The BI Verdict will now have access to a wealth of extra information including findings from The BI Survey, the world’s largest survey of BI end-users.”
“We are also introducing a new entry-level subscription – The BI Market Guide – to provide guidance and advice to customers in the early stages of their BI project.”
“This is great news for the thousands of users of The OLAP Report”, continued Michael Schumacher, head of sales & marketing for The BI Verdict. “I firmly believe we are providing an unparalleled service to those requiring in-depth and vendor-neutral information in the BI space.”
The BI Verdict evaluates BI solutions from market-leaders such as Microsoft (MSFT), IBM, Oracle (Nasdaq: ORCL) and SAP (NYSE: SAP) as well as a number of other smaller, competing vendors.
The BI Verdict is online now at www.bi-verdict.com.
