opportunities.

natural language processing, and mobile BI and their impact on end-users.

Report Highlights
The BI market has been abuzz with acquisition and consolidation activity over
the last two years due to the entry of several large software vendors.
Consolidation has been beneficial for most acquiring and acquired vendors but
is starting to affect independent pure-play vendors.
In such a turbulent market, technology evolution has been relatively tepid but
increasingly customer focused, as evident from the proliferation of bundles
tuned to end-user needs. Emerging technologies such as in-memory analytics and
natural language processing also look promising and expand the boundaries of
BI analysis.
Datamonitor analyzes the changing dynamics of the market and calls for a
re-evaluation of go-to-market strategies by each vendor. Datamonitor believes
vendors should assess the diversity of end-user needs and increased
competition and target specific channels to reach customers.
