The IIAR> continues its analyst firm webinars, this time featuring Howard Dresner, founder and chief research officer of Dresner Advisory Services. Founded in 2007, Dresner has become one of the most respected voices in business intelligence, analytics, and data management research. Their well-known Wisdom of Crowds reports are based on end-user feedback, offering independent and trusted insights into market adoption, priorities, and vendor performance.
Dresner’s portfolio includes syndicated research, advisory services, and custom studies, providing both enterprises and technology vendors with actionable intelligence. Their coverage spans business intelligence, AI, data science, data cataloging, and enterprise performance management, always with a strong emphasis on how real organizations use and gain value from these technologies.
During the webinar, Howard, Jamie and Jeff will share how his team conducts research and offer practical advice on engaging effectively with Dresner analysts.
