Performance Management and Business Intelligence together in a single solution leveraging Microsoft technology and
Tagetik's passion for performance

Tagetik, a global provider of enterprise software solutions for Performance Management, Enterprise Governance, Risk & Compliance and Business Intelligence, today announced a major release of 'Tagetik 4.0 Enabled by Microsoft® SharePoint® Server 2010' (http://www.tagetik.com/software/bi/sharepoint) at the Gartner Business Intelligence Summit 2012[1].

Since 2009, Tagetik and Microsoft have teamed up to deliver a unified Performance Management and Business Intelligence solution that offers a superior level of financial expertise, productivity, and functionality to the Office of Finance, all in a single application built on Microsoft leading-edge technology.

During the Gartner Business Intelligence Summit, Tagetik will be presenting the latest outcome of this strategic alliance: 'CPM&BI battle-tested by Finance, easy on IT: Tagetik 4.0 Enabled-by-Microsoft' - today February 6th at 2:45pm - to show the full potential of the revamped solution. 'Tagetik 4.0 Enabled by Microsoft® SharePoint® Server 2010' unifies key financial processes and applications including:

  • Budgeting, Planning & Forecasting;
  • Cash Forecasting;
  • Financial Consolidation & Close;
  • Statutory & Management Reporting;
  • Governance, Risk & Compliance;
  • Disclosure Management & Reporting;
  • Cost Allocation & Profitability Analysis;
  • Business Intelligence & Analytics;
  • Collaboration & Workflow.

"There are Corporate Performance Management (CPM) options today that are simple to use but cannot scale to thousands of users and do not have collaboration or analytics," says Dave Kasabian, Corporate Vice President Product Marketing at Tagetik and presenter at the conference (http://www.tagetik.com/company/management/dave-kasabian). "Others have scalability, analytics and collaboration but require multiple technologies that create headaches for IT. 'Tagetik 4.0 Enabled by Microsoft® SharePoint® Server 2010' is a software solution both Finance and IT can agree on."

"Tagetik works with the culture of a specialized craftsman with a deep knowledge of global market needs," adds Manuel Vellutini, Chief Operating Officer at Tagetik (http://www.tagetik.com/company/management/manuel-vellutini). "We know deeply the processes of Finance and continuously innovate to improve them. We will continue to exploit our 'secret ingredient', the passion for performance of 300 experts and many partners working everyday with unwavering commitment to ensure our customers' satisfaction and success. This is what makes Tagetik the smart choice for those that are passionate about performance."

The Office of Finance can thus make business information easily accessible to support multiple interrelated processes throughout the organization in one product to:

  • Accelerate informed decisions that achieve strategic goals;
  • Increase business productivity;
  • Gain control over financial data;
  • Maximize IT investments;
  • Reduce Total Cost of Ownership (TCO).

Tagetik 4.0 is tightly integrated with Microsoft's Business Intelligence, communication and collaboration tools. Customers can leverage existing technology investments in Microsoft® SharePoint® Server, SQL Server®, Analysis Services, Reporting Services, and PowerPivot as well as the skills of Microsoft-trained internal resources. Whether the IT strategy is diverse or Microsoft-centric, the software seamlessly coexists in virtually any IT environment.

Tagetik's achievements over the last year include winning the highly prestigious 'Microsoft ISV/Software Line of Business Partner of the Year' award (http://www.tagetik.com/events-news/press-releases/2011/microsoft-award-2011).
