Business intelligence and data management have come out of dusty back offices to take center stage at many organizations. More and more companies are recognizing the benefits of treating data as a valuable corporate asset. But with that comes a new realization of the challenges of effectively integrating, managing and leveraging data.
It seems like IT departments face more choices than ever when it comes to technologies, tools and strategies for business intelligence and data management. To help you narrow down the product field, SearchDataManagement.com put together a panel of experts who went over 31 of the top data management products to determine the "best of the best" in these key markets:
- Business intelligence

- Data quality
Judges carefully reviewed our many entries in each data management product category, using the following criteria to score each nominee:

We hope that you find these awards useful as you navigate the ever-changing vendor landscape to make a successful purchasing decision for your organization. Congratulations to the winners -- and to all of the nominees, which gave our panel of judges quite a challenge.
