Our Story

Its time to make a change.

About Pentaho

Pentaho was born out of the desire to achieve positive, disruptive change in the business analytics market, dominated by bureaucratic megavendors offering eye-wateringly expensive heavy-weight products built on outdated technology platforms, and who had become focused on integration with the rest of their enterprise application suites – at the expense of innovation of their BI capabilities.

Five industry veterans sought out a solution to this conundrum (hence the root of our name Penta). Today, with the same founding team leading the way (and a few more grey hairs), Pentaho has pioneered the future of business intelligence and analytics with a full suite of capabilities for data access and integration, discovery, analysis, and visualization – with the flexibility to deploy on-premise, in the Cloud, or embedded into other applications and access to virtually all data sources from spreadsheets to big data.

Pentaho is now the leading independent provider of business analytics to thousands of global enterprises and software vendors for up to 90 percent less cost than offerings from traditional vendors. The company is headquartered in Orlando, Florida, with offices in San Francisco, California and throughout Europe.
