JackBe Champions Real-Time Operational Intelligence Solutions with New Customers, Product Enhancements

CHEVY CHASE, Md. & FREMONT, Calif. -- (BUSINESS WIRE) -- JackBe, the leading provider of Real-Time Operational Intelligence Solutions, continued its five-year success streak in 2011 by adding Fortune 500 and government customers, achieving record revenue and bookings, and releasing two major product updates. The company also expanded its executive team with notable business intelligence industry veterans and the continued development of its partner eco-system.

JackBe significantly enhanced its customer base by delivering solutions to a broad spectrum of organizations including the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, Dell, and Procter & Gamble. JackBe completed several multi-year OEM agreements with hardware and software manufacturers to embed Operational BI capabilities within their software offering. Many of JackBe’s existing customers also reconfirmed their commitment to Presto with additional or expanded applications of the product.

JackBe’s greatest innovation in 2011 was the release of Presto 3.2, introducing a new Presto Mobile Add-On that extends Real-Time Operational Intelligence to iOS and Android mobile devices. JackBe also announced the next edition of its Real-Time Operational Intelligence Solution for SharePoint, enabling operational dashboards to seamlessly run in the SharePoint ecosystem and maximizing investments in SharePoint by avoiding costly re-development of Operational Intelligence solutions.

JackBe added an industry veteran to its executive team with the appointment of Rick Pitts to head its world-wide operations. Mr. Pitts brings over two decades of enterprise software sales and management expertise to JackBe including three years of explosive growth as the president & CEO of QlikView’s North America division.

"Organizations continue to struggle with the pressures to make decisions in extremely dynamic situations, in diminishing time windows, and based upon ever-increasing volumes of data. I was intrigued with JackBe’s next-generation approach to real-time operational decision-making and our customer successes are a testament to Presto’s ability to address this under-served area of the broader Business Intelligence market," Pitts said.

JackBe also completed its most successful year of free ‘Lunch and Learn’ online webcasts with record attendance. The popular webcast series included experts and guests from Qualcomm, Mphasis, Stratera, and the Executive Director of Recovery.gov, with Real-Time Business Intelligence topics ranging from ‘Mobile Business Intelligence: What, Why and How’ to ‘How an Enterprise App Store Expedites Information Delivery’. Archived recordings of the webcasts are available at no charge on JackBe.com.
