Angoss Named a Victor in Hurwitz & Associates Inaugural Victory Index for Predictive Analytics
Report Cites Angoss as a Victor Based on Expertise in Key Market Areas
TORONTO, Sept. 29, 2011 /PRNewswire/ - Angoss Software Corporation (Angoss) (TSX-V: ANC) today announced the company has been included in the inaugural Victory Index report from Hurwitz & Associates on Predictive Analytics. Angoss was among 12 companies to be evaluated and was recognized as a Victor based on its expertise in key market areas.
Designed as a market research assessment tool, the Victory Index highlights both the diverse uses of predictive analytics technology such as predicting consumer behavior, conducting economic forecasting and identifying fraud, and the vendors who make those applications possible. Led by Hurwitz & Associates Partner, Dr. Fern Halper, the Predictive Analytics study examines the most critical trends for end users to consider and analyzes 12 vendor offerings in the market across four key dimensions: Vision, Viability, Validity and Value.
"Victors in the Index have a clear vision for their solutions and deliver strong customer value," said Fern Halper, report author. "Angoss has a clear strategy around predictive analytics, offering both on premises and SaaS solutions. Customers gave Angoss high marks for its Decision Tree interface, flexibility and ease of use. Business analysts find its software products fairly easy to use, as well. These are some of the reasons Angoss was named a Victor in the Index."
"It is a tremendous privilege for Angoss to be recognized as a leader in this marketplace by such a credible research group as Hurwitz," said Martin Galligan, President and CEO of Angoss. "As we grow our customer base and enhance our predictive analytics software to meet the needs of quantitative analysts; we also strive to offer customers the most innovative SaaS solutions for businesses that do not have data analyst talent and who, regardless of their size, want to use business analytics to compete more effectively in the markets they serve."
