TIBCO Software, a player in business integration applications, extended itself into the business intelligence space earlier this week with its $195 million all-cash purchase of Spotfire, Inc. Spotfire has built its business on providing tools that quickly deliver brand and market analysis to corporate decision makers. Its business intelligence offerings include the DecisionSite suite, which enables researchers, engineers, and analysts — predominantly in the life sciences, energy, and manufacturing industries — to visualize real-time data analysis.

DXP Professional targets line-of-business users, while DXP Enterprise Player extends interaction with the data findings to executives and business managers. [Click to continue] |
