SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 11, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- FortressIQ, the process intelligence platform for the modern enterprise, is reporting a year of tremendous growth as it continues to support customers’ business transformation goals. More than 60 percent of the company’s customers have an annual revenue of over $10 billion dollars, many of which are F10 companies. Leading companies in finance and accounting, HR, manufacturing, retail, financial services, insurance, and more, rely on FortressIQ’s process intelligence platform to obtain the data and insights needed to answer the most pressing questions facing their teams.

“This has been a considerable year of growth for FortressIQ, and we’re working to constantly uncover new and innovative ways to support our customers throughout their business transformation journeys,” said Pankaj Chowdhry, CEO at FortressIQ. “The business landscape is undergoing great change, and it can be the natural tendency of some organizations to retreat toward familiar models and put innovation programs on hold. However, for companies who want to come out thriving on the other side of this, we believe there’s never been a more apt time to invest in digital transformation and streamlining business processes.”

FortressIQ uses AI and computer vision to create a detailed blueprint of every process across every application and department within an organization’s technology landscape. Its process intelligence platform empowers companies by giving them access to data and insights that will fuel their success and let them realize their business transformation goals.

"In our recent analysis of process intelligence products, FortressIQ emerged as one of the most innovative startups in this market,” said Reetika Fleming, research VP at HFS Research. “Its approach to discovering and documenting task activities is forward-thinking and invaluable for clients that want to better understand the intricacies of their business processes. FortressIQ's partnership ecosystem is also very promising, and we expect great things from the Microsoft alliance on data visualization and automation.”
