SAN FRANCISCO, March 10, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Jaspersoft, makers of the most widely used business intelligence (BI) software in the world, today announced that JMP Securities has included Jaspersoft in its Hot 100 Best Privately Held Software Companies list for the third straight year.

"Jaspersoft is honored to be once again recognized for our open source BI solutions," said Brian Gentile, Jaspersoft CEO. "We have invested extensively in the last year with a new UI architecture and native plug-ins for popular Big Data systems and it's great to know that others are acknowledging our robust BI solutions."
