TEC was coined "the Rolls-Royce of decision support tools" by ZDNet

Q: How different is the TEC Evaluation Center from other sites with superimposed vendors' data (features/functions)?
A: The main difference is the fact the TEC Evaluation Center relating to enterprise technologies uses a combination of extensive vendor analysis coupled with the powerful analytical capabilities of eBestMatch™. Vendor data is third party evaluated and is fully impartial. The depth of analysis goes far beyond features and functions; it includes elements such as Corporate Strategy, Flexibility and Viability. This gives all vendors an equal playing field. When this data is entered into our Knowledge Base and viewed through the eBestMatch™ engine, it becomes an invaluable tool for analysis -“the Rolls Royce of Decision Analysis Software”(ZDNet).

Q: What is a Knowledge Base?
A: A Knowledge Base is a repository of information created by intense research gathering, and organized in a comprehensive Decision Hierarchy. Our Knowledge Bases are created with the intent of covering all aspects of the evaluation in question including enterprise technologies - not just features and functionality. Storing vendor data in a Decision Hierarchy allows us to effectively organize business needs and lets the users focus on their priorities at the level of detail of their choosing. In addition to an organized view of all aspects in their evaluation - a Knowledge Base permits the storage of notes, comments, and other relevant information at each level of the Decision Hierarchy. It encompasses all of the vendor information, ratings, and is also where your personalized priorities are stored. We are also building archives on enterprise technologies.
