The Software & Information Industry Association (SIIA), which is the principal trade association for the software and digital content industries, announced Jaspersoft's win as one of 28 CODiE Award winners in business software categories. A SIIA CODiE Award win for software companies is an especially prestigious honor as each award winner is first reviewed by a field of software industry executives, whose evaluations determined finalists. SIIA members then review these finalists and vote to select the CODiE Awards Winners.

Jaspersoft leverages a commercial open source business model to deliver a 100% web-based Business Intelligence suite that is built purely on open standards and designed for the agility required in the new IT world. The result is a fully integrated product line that spans an enterprise's need for reporting, dashboarding, analysis and data integration - so organizations can make better decisions faster.

"Jaspersoft continues to evangelize the key principals of open source: transparency, participation and collaboration," explained Karl Van den Bergh, Jaspersoft's Vice President of Product and Alliances. "Through these principles and our community of over 275,000 members, we have created a product that advances BI capabilities to address the emerging needs of the new IT world driven by cloud, mobile and Big Data. We are very pleased to receive this award in recognition of this work."

About the SIIA CODiE™ Awards
The SIIA CODiE™ Awards, originally called the Excellence in Software Awards, were established in 1986 by the Software Publishers Association (SPA), now the Software & Information Industry Association (SIIA), so that pioneers of the then-nascent software industry could evaluate and honor each other's work. Since then, the CODiE Awards program has carried out the same purpose – to showcase the software and information industry's finest products and services and to honor excellence in corporate achievement.
