About Us

Information Builders was founded over 28 years ago with a very simple mission – to help business people get to the information in their enterprise systems easily and quickly.

We succeeded. Today, our customers can efficiently put information in the hands of everyone they rely on to support, supply, run, and transact with their businesses. Thousands of customers and partners all over the world, including most of the Fortune 100, all major federal agencies, and many educational institutions, use Information Builders' software and services to turn data into actionable information that helps their customers, employees, managers, and business partners make better decisions faster. Information Builders helps companies achieve a competitive advantage in an "information now" world.

Information Builders sets the standard for enterprise business intelligence and reporting by adhering to the same mission: WebFOCUS, our flagship product, is a fully integrated enterprise business intelligence suite (EBIS) that enables customers to make better decisions based on complete information by providing more access to more data sources and running on more platforms than any other vendor. Unlike other business intelligence and reporting products, WebFOCUS delivers comprehensive functionality – including enterprise reporting, ad hoc query and OLAP analysis, information delivery and management, data access/management and ETL, portal integration, flexible and intuitive development tools, administration and security, and closed-loop business intelligence – built from the ground up by the same engineering staff to ensure interoperability.

The WebFOCUS architecture scales to reliably accommodate a wide range of users as applications get deployed across the enterprise and beyond. This flexible and reliable architecture allows companies to deploy enterprise BI and reporting on a broad scale with the lowest total cost of ownership.

Information Builders' subsidiary, iWay Software – the world's leading supplier of adapters – provides a low-cost, incremental approach to enterprise integration. iWay helps customers get projects into production quickly and cost-effectively and then use the paybacks to fund successive projects. iWay's solutions accelerate the deployment and reduce the risk of all types of integration projects – including composite applications, Web services deployments, B2B interactions using XML and EDI, ETL, data integration, and enterprise information integration initiatives. iWay projects support critical platforms and standards like J2EE™ and .NET are fully reusable for future initiatives and can be easily leveraged by leading integration suites from IBM, BEA, SAP, or Microsoft.
