SAS named top vendor of business intelligence

MANILA, Philippines – Frost & Sullivan recently named SAS, a leader in business analytics software and services, as the 2009 Business Intelligence Vendor of the Year in Asia Pacific.

The award, which was conferred as part of the 2009 Frost & Sullivan Asia-Pacific ICT Awards, marked the fifth time that SAS has received this honor in the six-year history of the awards program.

As a leader in business analytics, SAS aims to help clients evolve from the traditional report-driven model to a more intelligence-driven paradigm.

This commitment is shown from SAS’ continued strategy of re-investing its growth back to further enhancing the strength and depth of its analytic solutions. This is done by allocating up to 22 percent of its revenue to R&D, a percentage that is unmatched by its competitors.
