Feedback from Business Intelligence Pipeline readers tells me that you appreciate our reviews of BI tools and applications.

We're also providing an interactive scorecard, available here, that gives a side-by-side view of the seven platforms. Best of all, it lets you, the readers, weigh in and grade the Web analytics tools yourself, including their e-commerce analysis, administrative flexibility, ease of use, price and professional services.
