Evaluation based on completeness of vision and ability to execute
Human Inference, a leading provider of data quality software solutions, today announced that it has been positioned by Gartner, Inc. in the Magic Quadrant for Data Quality Tools 1). With growing awareness of the importance of data quality as a strategic issue, interest in the role of technology for data quality improvement is building. Besides, the market for data quality tools has become highly visible in recent years as more organizations understand the impact of poor-quality data and seek solutions for improvement.
Data quality tools and data quality as a discipline have enjoyed increased awareness and interest on the part of technology buyers, venture capital firms and vendors in related markets. As a result, the data quality tool market is growing. According to the report much of the innovation is coming from outside the U.S.
'We consider our positioning in the Magic Quadrant for Data Quality Tools by Gartner a confirmation of the Human Inference strategy,' says Hugo Verwijs, CEO of Human Inference. 'Human Inference underlines its knowledge of the European market specifics by ongoing development and continuous innovation of its products. In addition, we believe our position in the Data Quality market supports us to further convince management of the importance of data quality.'
