Selection of software providers
To be included in BARC Score Analytics for Business Users, vendors and tools must meet a number of economic and technical criteria.
Tools must cover the entire analytical cycle within a unified platform and support at least ‘data preparation’, ‘visual analysis’ and ‘dashboards’. The entire creation and use of analytical content must be supported in a way that is suitable for business users, and the seamless integration of all components is a prerequisite for this. In addition, the providers must generate annual licensing and maintenance revenues of 10 million euros in at least two geographical regions. All global economic regions are taken into account (i.e., Europe, Middle East and Africa, North America, Latin America and Asia Pacific).
