Who are leaders?

The two main axis remain the same as in 2013 report: completeness of vision and ability to execute. It added some capabilities such as Geospatial and location intelligence, Embedded advanced analytics, Business user data mashup and modeling, Embeddable analytics, and Support for big data sources. Tableau leads in ability to execute and IBM/SAS lead in completeness of vision. QlikView, Microsoft, SAP, Tibco, Oracle, MicroStrategy remain in leader quadrant.

What are the trends for 2014?

The answer is “business-user-driven data discovery and analysis” and “Cloud BI”. “The BI and analytics platform market is in the middle of an accelerated transformation from BI systems used primarily for measurement and reporting to those that also support analysis, prediction, forecasting and optimization”, according to Gartner's 2014 reports.The data-discovery category was pioneered by Tableau, Qlikview, Microsoft, IBM and SAS, which have done a better job than the others of integrating their enterprise and new data discovery capabilities.
