Aberdeen Group Survey Reveals Infor as Most Influential Private Technology Company in the World

Infor today announced that an Aberdeen Group survey of more than 1600 business leaders in 36 countries ranks Infor the most influential private technology company. The survey, part of Aberdeen's "2009 State of the Market: Mid-Year Insights Report," ranks the top 25 technology vendors that had the most influence over respondents' companies over the last year. This year Infor moved up 5 spots to number 13 overall and is the only privately-held company to make the list.

"The 2009 State of the Market: Mid-Year Insights Report" highlights the best practices and recommended actions for managing customers, employees, products, services, and information technology in today's volatile market. Aberdeen determined the top technology vendors by asking survey respondents to identify the three technology companies that have the largest influence on their day-to-day operations. Infor received the 13th highest number of mentions, ahead of AT&T, Intel and Adobe, among others.

"This recognition is a testament to our corporate strategy, which is to help advance our customers' businesses with powerful solutions that deliver the highest value," said Jim Schaper, chairman and CEO, Infor. "Our ranking on Aberdeen's list honors the great strides we have made in meeting the changing needs of our customers through innovative offerings, such as Infor Flex and Infor MyDay."
