NASHUA, N.H., Aug. 5, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Dresner Advisory Services today named its 2024 Industry Excellence Awards winners, acknowledging vendors who achieved leadership in the company's 2024 Wisdom of Crowds^® Analytical Data Infrastructure (ADI), Business Intelligence (BI), or Enterprise Performance Management (EPM) Market Studies.

The studies are based on data collected from end users and provide a broad assessment of current usage, key drivers, technology priorities, and intentions. They include performance ratings of relevant vendors based on the Dresner Advisory trademark 33-measure system.

The winners have achieved leadership status in two industry-rating models. The Customer Experience model considers the real-world experience of customers as they work with a vendor's technology solution on a daily basis, plotting various customer touch points against sentiment surrounding product and technology. The Vendor Credibility Model considers a vendor's relationship with customers, plotting perceived value for price paid against a calculated "confidence" score.

"Our flagship studies draw upon more than 15 years of data covering numerous aspects of user behaviors and intentions," said Howard Dresner, founder and chief research officer at Dresner Advisory Services. "Vendor ratings are driven completely by customer input, weighing users' firsthand experience with their vendors. We congratulate the Industry Excellence winners on receiving this high recognition from their customers this year."
