Information Builders' iWay Enterprise Information Management Suite Named a 2010 Trend-Setting Product by KMWorld


NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwire - August 20, 2010) -  Information Builders, the independent leader in operational business intelligence (BI) systems, today announced that the iWay Enterprise Information Management (EIM) suite was named a "Trend-Setting Product" of 2010 by KMWorld magazine. The award recognizes products that clearly demonstrate technology breakthroughs, which serve the vendors' full spectrum of constituencies, especially their customers. The iWay EIM Suite was selected for the second consecutive year.

The iWay EIM suite enables organizations to integrate and manage massive volumes of corporate data in real time, which many times exists in disparate locations and a variety of formats. Regardless of where the data resides, whether it's in structured or unstructured format, the iWay EIM suite can seamlessly integrate, enrich, and transform the data into relevant, timely intelligence. The operational master data management (MDM) platform provides comprehensive data quality services to ensure optimum accuracy, timeliness, and reliability of information when companies need it most.

"This year, our trend-setting products demonstrate a market need for innovative products regardless of the financial restraints IT budgets are facing as we move from recession to recovery," said KMWorld Editor-in-Chief Hugh McKellar. "We chose the iWay EIM suite for two years in a row because of its ability to consistently deliver on the lofty promise of innovating the way companies integrate and access information in real time."

The KMWorld "Trend-Setting Product" awards, in its eighth consecutive year, are judged by a panel of editorial staff, analysts, system integrators, vendors themselves (sometimes even competitive ones), line-of-business managers, and users.

"We're proud to be recognized by KMWorld's panel of judges for our ongoing innovation in the field of operational master data management," said Gerald Cohen, CEO and president of Information Builders. "iWay works so seamlessly behind the scenes that it makes the information architect's life easier, while business users can access the information they need instantly."
