"End user data preparation has emerged as a key part of any analytics project. Well over half of all respondents to our survey consider end user data preparation either critical or very important," said Howard Dresner, president, founder and chief research officer of Dresner Advisory Services. "Users are demanding tools that have the level of usability that lends itself to self-service and user autonomy."

The study evaluated 26 vendors based on usability, integration, output, data manipulation and deployment features.

"We're honored to be recognized by a leading industry analyst as the top data preparation vendor in the market," said Adam Wilson, CEO of Trifacta. "The study validates our original vision of radically increasing productivity with data by delivering powerful transformation capabilities through an incredibly intuitive user experience to allow those who know the data best to do the data wrangling."

The End User Data Preparation report is the latest addition to the research series, joining other reports such as Location Intelligence, Advanced and Predictive Analytics, Cloud BI, Collaborative BI, Embedded BI, BI Emerging Technologies and the Small to Mid-Sized Enterprise BI Market Study.
