"WebFOCUS is designed with the power and versatility to address a diverse range of BI and analytics needs for this midmarket group.

WebFOCUS also integrates seamlessly with Information Builders' iWay integration and information integrity solutions, allowing companies to easily integrate and cleanse data from disparate sources to ensure more accurate insight.

Numerous midmarket organizations have benefitted from the breadth and depth of WebFOCUS' capabilities.

Scott Franzel, senior vice president of IT for OFS comments: "Information Builders' WebFOCUS delivered the power and flexibility we needed to address the needs of team members across geographies and disciplines.
