REPORTSMITH WINS DM REVIEW
TOP 100 TOOLS FOR DATA WAREHOUSE PRODUCTS
Boston, MA, December 9, 1998 – Strategic Reporting Systems, Inc. (SRS), the market leader for business intelligence query and reporting products, today was awarded the 1998 DM Review "Top 100 Software Product Award" for their business intelligence query and reporting product, ReportSmith.
DM Review magazine is rated the number one business intelligence and data warehousing publication in North America. The "Top 100 Tools for Data Warehouse" is based on the results of an independent survey of over 600 DM Review readers. DM Review readers selected the winning companies based on the quality and overall value to the enterprise that their respective products provide.
Of the twenty-six vendors ranked in the Tier 2 class, ReportSmith’s query and reporting tools were recognized as "excellent" by 50% of the readers. More than three-quarters (75%) rated ReportSmith "very good" or "excellent." With that high degree of satisfaction, ReportSmith remains the preferred query and reporting tool in the industry today.
"Most notable about this honor is that the award came from the users and readers. Their voices, and common experience with ReportSmith, loudly proclaim ReportSmith as a preferred query and reporting tool. Thus, we are exceptionally pleased with this strong validation of ReportSmith and our growing reputation for providing maximum value through our customer centric product development and business operations," said David Lenhart, General Manager at SRS, Inc.
"Since acquiring ReportSmith from Inprise Corporation (formerly Borland) in 1997, SRS has invested substantially to enhance ReportSmith and focus it as a tool to help businesses easily access, retrieve, manipulate, and analyze their data," explains Richard Fried, President and CEO of SRS, Inc. "These investments, together with our disciplined focus to deliver what the customer wants, has produced a successful company with a wildly popular query and reporting tool."

SRS develops, markets, and supports software products that improve the ability of business professionals worldwide to make timely, fact-based business decisions.
