I'm a wiki newbie, so I apologize for the incorrect usage of terms, etc, in the following. The financial numbers in the article are contradictory. The opening section says that the company "earned $644 million in 2017". The right-hand box says that the revenue in that year was the same amount. That's impossible, because the company's costs would have to be zero. The author(s) must have confused earnings and revenue, but I can't tell in which direction. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Evan W Morton (talk • contribs) 13:55, 11 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

References for notability

Some additional references about the company are available. Here's a newspaper article from India: http://www.thehindubusinessline.com/2007/07/24/stories/2007072450460400.htm See also this Google News archive search and this one. -- Eastmain (talk) 04:31, 16 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Updating product and customer information

The product and customer info is out of date, and I have updated it in a draft in my sandbox User:Napa_the_Cat/sandbox/InterSystems, with links to support the updates. Would someone mind taking a look and updating the article? Any feedback is more than welcome; I don't want to burden other editors with cleanup of inadvertent errors. Thank you.
