Florian Winterstein, CEO Jedox

I am beyond thrilled to share some exciting news. Jedox was recognized as a Leader in the Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Financial Planning Software. A Gartner Magic Quadrant is a culmination of research in a specific market, giving the reader of the research wide-angle view of the relative positions of the market’s competitors.

We believe this recognition is an affirmation and commitment to innovation, excellence, and customer investment security. This is the second year that the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Financial Planning Software has been published, and we are extremely happy we were recognized as a Leader.

By applying a graphical treatment and a uniform set of evaluation criteria, a Magic Quadrant helps you quickly ascertain how well technology providers are executing their stated visions and how well they are performing against Gartner’s market view. We believe being named as a Leader is a testament to our strong vision and ability to execute within this evolving market. FP&A leaders can use this research to assess vendors best suited to offer technology solutions for their FP&A processes.

We believe Jedox capabilities, low/no-code approach and advances in Artificial Intelligence and Natural Language Processing (NLP) contributed to Jedox being recognized among the five highest ranked vendors in the Gartner Critical Capabilities for Financial Planning Software for Efficiency and Improved Operational Visibility and Management Use Cases.

As we move into 2024, we will continue to deliver product innovation to aid finance teams as they continue their digital transformations. Not only will our 2,800 customers benefit, but we expect those businesses that want to experience something we call Superplännen, to evaluate and choose Jedox on our ability to meet their long-term planning and performance needs. Automation of planning, budgeting, forecasting and analysis workflows, self-service data integration, and self-service dashboarding and management reporting means Jedox will support business leaders’ requirements in an increasingly competitive environment. Additional investments in practical AI and NLP will reach the office of finance and support a market trend of “Autonomous Finance” as business leaders look to optimize their value chain.

Jedox customers and ecosystem partners know CFOs can model any aspect of their business including future demand and customer churn predictions through AI-enhanced forecasts. As most people understand Microsoft Excel, they quickly master the Jedox platform and its automated management reporting and dashboarding. This simplifies adoption and change management within the office of finance and allows for better and faster transformation consistent with the way people like to work. Capturing ad hoc insights within dashboards and formatted financial and tabular views of budgets, forecasts, and plans enables companies to understand their drivers and focus on plan execution.

Whether you are ready to evaluate new FP&A software vendors, or simply want to better understand market forces, I encourage you start a conversation with us.
