This announcement comes on the first day of the Gartner IT Symposium/Xpo™ 2022, where Incorta is an exhibitor. 

“Persistent and far-reaching economic uncertainty is creating insatiable demand for real-time access to financial and operational data – as well as the ability to analyze and act upon it quickly and with confidence,” said Steve Walden, Incorta EVP of Business Development and Strategy. “As these latest additions to the Incorta Analytics Data Hub for Finance demonstrate, we are rapidly expanding the solution to meet demand and support even more use cases in the office of the CFO – and we are working with today’s most popular and widely-used finance tools to do it.”
