So far, solution providers such as IBM(Cognos), QlikView, Klipfolio, Visual Mining, Corda, InetSoft, just to name a few and in no particular order, have participated by filling out a survey that identifies product and service offerings, some key features, and general market fit.  

Anyway, even though I’ve done some preliminary research based on the results, the final close date is the end of March.  I’m looking forward to seeing the results and will keep you posted as some of the results come in.
