April 18, 2006 - The imperative to manage performance in operations continues to gain in stature and momentum. A key component of managing performance is analytic server technology that can model, analyze, plan and improve business user interactions. Applix recently announced the availability of version 9.0 of TM1, its performance management software, which brings to market significant improvements in performance and scalability through support of 64-bit computing on Microsoft Windows 2003 Server technology as well as advances in architecture and usability. These advances are sorely needed in many enterprises whose business intelligence (BI) systems cannot enable sophisticated what-if forecasting and planning, analysis and reporting on a common server platform. Ventana Research recommends that organizations seeking to support performance management in their finance and operations groups should examine Applix’s product.


To be able to respond to the increasing pressure to complete quarterly and annual reviews more quickly, organizations need to develop the capability to plan and forecast across their finance and operations sectors. Doing this requires a common IT platform that can operate across organizational and business process areas. Yet many companies still depend on isolated systems that work only in finance or operations.
