Albany, NY (PRWEB) October 06, 2016 -- Vena Solutions, the fastest growing provider of cloud-based corporate performance management (CPM) software, is proud to announce that Forrester Research has named it a Strong Performer in The Forrester Wave™: Enterprise Performance Management report for 2016.
Forrester surveyed more than 40 enterprise performance management (EPM) user companies for the report. The company identified the 10 most significant providers and then evaluated them based on 36 criteria.
Forrester named Vena a Strong Performer and gave it the highest scores possible in criteria including:
- Usability: based on consistency, simplicity, clear navigation, visual elements, task guidance, Excel compatibility and home screen;
- Cohesiveness: a seamless product set built on a single architecture;
- Cloud/SaaS Strategy: based on making SaaS the business strategy for all EPM offerings, with SaaS driving product development and innovation without the coexistence constraints of legacy products.
