Best-in-Class
We were asked a month or so ago to analyze best-in-class companies operating in the data, information, and analytics ecosystem that had transformed from legacy businesses into companies delivering data-driven analytics services. Our list isn’t complete, but it’s a good representation of companies that are getting it done.
Look at the list below and consider that this a great cohort to benchmark against. These are also companies that are scaling data-intensive businesses — and doing it well. Some are farther along than others, but all are amid transformation journeys with data and analytics at their core.
