Leading analyst and advisory firm Gartner has named decision-making platform provider BOARD International as a Visionary in both its 2018 Magic Quadrant for Cloud Financial Planning and Analysis Solutions & Magic Quadrant for Cloud Financial Close Solutions.

The Gartner Magic Quadrant for Cloud Financial Planning and Analysis Solutions (Christopher Iervolino, John Van Decker, 24 July 2018) states that “Financial planning and analysis solutions support the office of finance’s efforts to manage financial planning and budgeting as well as financial modeling and performance reporting.” BOARD International was positioned in the Visionaries quadrant.

The Gartner Magic Quadrant for Cloud Financial Close Solutions (John Van Decker, Christopher Iervolino, 26 July 2018) states that “Financial close solutions help the office of finance manage the financial close and apply appropriate controls throughout the accounting cycle.” BOARD International was positioned in the Visionaries quadrant and improved its overall position compared to the previous report.
