Bold Reports Earns Five Badges in G2’s Fall 2026 Reports

TL;DR

In G2’s Fall 2026 Reports, Bold Reports earned five badges: Leader in the Business Intelligence category, and in the Embedded Business Intelligence category, High Performer (EMEA), Regional Leader (Europe), Leader, and Leader (Small Business).

Introduction

As summer gives way to cooler days, Bold Reports® is closing out the season with its strongest showing yet in the G2 Fall 2026 Reports. The recognition comes directly from the people who use Bold Reports every day: developers and teams who embed reporting into their applications and rely on it to turn raw data into clear, shareable reports.

None of these badges are self-proclaimed. G2’s Grid® Reports rank products using a combination of verified user reviews and data aggregated from online sources and social networks, so a badge reflects what actual customers said about their experience over the review period, not a marketing claim. That distinction matters in a reporting market where it’s easy to promise a lot and harder to deliver on it consistently, quarter after quarter.

This season, Bold Reports earned five badges across two categories, spanning global recognition, regional strength in Europe, and a dedicated nod for how well it serves small business teams. Together, they point to steady growth in customer satisfaction, adoption, and reach rather than a single standout result.

Award-Winning Performance: Bold Reports in G2 Fall 2026 Reports

Bold Reports’ recognition in the G2 Fall 2026 Reports is based on verified reviews from real users and reflects its proven performance, ease of use, and commitment to scalable reporting solutions. Each badge below is tied to a specific report, a specific region or segment, or both, so the criteria behind them differ slightly even though the underlying source, direct customer feedback, stays the same.

Leader in Business Intelligence

Bold Reports was named a Leader in G2’s Business Intelligence category, a badge reserved for products that land in the top-right quadrant of the Grid® Report, meaning both high customer satisfaction scores and strong market presence. Earning it in a broad, heavily reviewed category like this one takes consistency across a wide range of use cases, not just a single strong quarter.

What it reflects:

• • Consistently high satisfaction scores from verified users across industries.
  • Strong market presence relative to other products G2 tracks in the category.
  • A track record user are willing to vouch for in their own reviews.
  • Recognition in a wider category than embedded reporting alone, reflecting how broadly Bold Reports is being adopted.

High Performer in EMEA

Bold Reports was recognized as a High Performer in the EMEA Regional Grid® Report for Embedded Business Intelligence, reflecting strong customer satisfaction across Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. High Performer sits just below Leader on G2’s grid: satisfaction scores are strong, and the badge signals a product users are happy with even as its regional market presence continues to build.

What it reflects:

• • Organizations across EMEA trust Bold Reports for dependable, high-quality reporting.
  • Users are consistently satisfied in competitive and compliance-driven regional markets.
  • Bold Reports stays focused on stability, usability, and customer-driven improvements.
  • A regional result specific to EMEA, separate from how Bold Reports performs globally or in other regions.

Regional Leader in Europe

Bold Reports also earned a Regional Leader badge in the Europe Regional Grid® Report for Embedded Business Intelligence, a step up from High Performer that reflects both satisfaction and a growing presence among European users. Because this is a narrower region than EMEA as a whole, it’s a more specific signal of how Bold Reports is being received across European markets in particular.

What it reflects:

• • Growing adoption of Bold Reports among European development teams.
  • High marks for ease of use and implementation from regional reviewers.
  • A widening footprint alongside established players in the region.
  • Momentum that builds on the broader EMEA High Performer result, this time at Leader status within Europe specifically.

Leader in Embedded Business Intelligence

Bold Reports was named an overall Leader in the Embedded Business Intelligence category, G2’s broadest recognition of the category and one of its most competitive badges to earn, since it’s measured against every product G2 tracks in that category worldwide rather than a single region or segment.

What it reflects:

• • Sustained customer satisfaction across company sizes and geographies.
  • A developer-friendly architecture that reviewers repeatedly call out as a differentiator.
  • Continued investment in the reporting capabilities users rely on most.
  • A global result that sits above the regional and segment-specific badges earned this same season.

Small Business Leader

Rounding out the season, Bold Reports was named a Leader in the Small Business segment of the Embedded Business Intelligence category, recognizing how well it serves smaller, fast-moving teams, a segment G2 evaluates separately from Mid-Market and Enterprise because the needs, budgets, and implementation timelines are genuinely different.

What it reflects:

• • Small businesses rely on Bold Reports to embed secure, scalable reporting into their products.
  • Teams get enterprise-grade reporting capabilities without the overhead that usually comes with them.
  • A pricing and licensing model, including a free Community License, that fits smaller teams.
  • A fast enough path from evaluation to implementation that small teams with limited engineering time still rated the experience highly.

Why businesses choose Bold Reports for embedded reporting

Bold Reports continues to earn trust across industries by delivering powerful, flexible, developer-friendly reporting without unnecessary complexity. Here’s what stands out:

• • Enterprise-grade security: role-based access control, secured data connections, and identity-provider integration keep reports safe in regulated environments.
  • Seamless deployment options: on-premises, cloud, or hybrid deployment that adapts to your infrastructure as you scale.
  • Rich embedding capabilities: embed reporting into web, desktop, and SaaS applications using .NET, Angular, React, Blazor, WPF, and more.
  • High-performance report processing: fast rendering, optimized caching, and robust export options, even with large datasets.
  • Strong data connectivity: connect to SQL, Oracle, PostgreSQL, REST APIs, cloud databases, and hundreds of other sources.
  • Pixel-perfect reporting: precise, high-fidelity reports that keep their layout and accuracy across every export format.
  • Flexible pricing: quote-based pricing for cloud and on-premises deployments, plus a free Community License for individual developers and small teams.
  • Multi-tenant support: centralized administration and isolated tenant access built for SaaS providers and larger organizations.
  • Ease of use: reviewers consistently point to Bold Reports’ clean design and straightforward reporting workflows as easy to pick up without heavy onboarding.
  • Standalone report designer: a full-featured desktop designer for advanced, offline report creation when a browser-based workflow isn’t the right fit.
  • Collaborative reporting: built-in sharing, commenting, and scheduling so teams can work from the same reports instead of passing files back and forth.

Looking ahead

Recognition like this is encouraging, but it’s also a reminder to keep paying attention to what got us here. As the applications developers build continue to change, so do the expectations around how their reports get created, shared, and maintained. Teams want tools that not only work well today but keep pace as their data sources, deployment models, and user bases grow.

At Bold Reports, that means staying focused on:

• • Listening closely to what users tell us through reviews and support conversations, not just usage data.
  • Adapting to how development teams actually build and ship, rather than asking them to adapt to us.
  • Keeping a balance between the depth of an enterprise reporting tool and the simplicity a smaller team needs.
  • Providing a dependable foundation that teams can build on without worrying it will change under them.

Rather than chasing every new trend, the goal is sustained progress: a reporting platform that keeps earning trust one release, and one review, at a time.

Final thoughts

Five badges in a single G2 season is a meaningful marker for Bold Reports, and it’s one earned through the reviews of developers and teams who use the product daily, not a claim we’re making about ourselves. Taken together, the Business Intelligence Leader badge, the EMEA and Europe regional results, the overall Embedded Business Intelligence Leader badge, and the Small Business Leader badge tell a consistent story: Bold Reports is holding up well with the people actually building on it, at global scale and in the specific regions and segments where they work.

Whether you need dependable report creation, enterprise-grade capabilities, or straightforward embedded reporting, Bold Reports is built to help you turn data into reports people actually use.
