The market for business intelligence (BI) reporting and analysis solutions exceeded $5.5 billion in 2004, up from $5.3 billion in 2003. Reporting and analysis is essential to addressing compliance and measuring corporate performance, but standardizing on a single BI platform for all reporting needs is still a few years away. Most Global 2,000 companies have between five and 15 separate reporting and analysis solutions in use, placing a strain on IT resources and calling into question the integrity of the data in any one report. Consequently, the market is transitioning from departmental tools to enterprise solutions.
