It is essential that the information and functionalities on BI suites come clearly to organizations. Only a correct choice will allow data to result in gains and business success. In this paper we present a comparative analysis of some BI tools capabilities, in order to aid organizations in the selection process of the most suitable BI platform. We also test the use of collaborative technologies to integrate data from social networks because it can be determinant in the design of future business strategies.
