SAP Mobile BI Lead Faces Challenges
Mobile business-intelligence (BI) solutions give senior execs and line-of-business managers ready access to BI information during the decisionmaking process.

And despite SAP’s lead in the mobile BI arena, Ovum notes competitors IBM, Oracle and SAS also are eyeing increased market share and could influence things this year.
