Roambi was clearly built to bring some of the cool factor of Apple products to BI…or maybe it was the other way around. The downloadable Analytics app for Apple iPad and iPhone may be solely focused on these two products for delivery, but is also able to connect to a variety of data sources, as well. This narrowed front-end focus may be precisely what differentiates their product. As a result, Roambi is able create a desirable user experience and excel in user adoption where others may struggle.
The story of Roambi really took of with a $30 million investment from Sequoia Capital in late 2011. From there I recommend reading about, “How Roambi became one of the hottest business apps for the iPad.”
