Microsoft: leader in the Business Intelligence quadrant
May 20, 2016
Gartner has positioned Microsoft as a leader in the Magic Quadrant for Business Intelligence and Analytics Platforms, placing it for the first time as the most visionary.
After Microsoft took the lead in Gartner's Magic Quadrant for Operational Database Management Systems in October 2015, Gartner has once again positioned Microsoft as a leader, for the ninth year running, in the Magic Quadrant for Business Intelligence and Analytics Platforms, placing it for the first time as the most visionary.
The establishment of a modern BI and analytics platform significantly transformed the leaders quadrant in this year's Magic Quadrant compared with its composition in previous years.
