Predictive analytics enables firms to reduce risks, make intelligent decisions, and create differentiated, more personal customer experiences. But predictive analytics is hard to do without the right tools and technologies, given the increasing challenge of storing, processing, and accessing the volume, velocity, and variety of big data. In Forrester's 51-criteria evaluation of big data predictive analytics solution vendors, we evaluated 10 solutions from Angoss Software, IBM, KXEN, Oracle, Revolution Analytics, Salford Systems, SAP, SAS, StatSoft, and Tibco Software. This report details our findings about how well each solution fulfills the criteria and where they stand in relation to each other, and it helps application development and delivery professionals select the right big data predictive analytics solution.
