Since it is the prerogative of a consultant to question and modify predominant jargon, I am hatting (yes, this too is an English word) …I am hatting myself in the hat of a consultant this morning, and I am questioning the application of the term “Business Intelligence.”
If your organization is implementing self-serve business intelligence, it is important to balance sophisticated tools with the skills of the average business user. While algorithms and advanced data analysis are a great benefit, if business users find these tools daunting, they won’t adopt them, and you won’t improve productivity, or timeliness or accuracy of decision-making.
Complex BI tools are not suitable for the self-serve environment. These tools are meant only for programmers and data scientists. To empower business users and allow them to achieve goals and contribute to the bottom line, you provide advanced analytics and smart data visualization tools in an easy-to-use environment that encourages user adoption and report and data sharing.
ElegantJ BI is pleased to be a Silver Sponsor at the Gartner Data & Analytics Summit, which will be held on June 6 and 7, 2017 in Mumbai, India. The theme of the conference is ‘Lead in the Age of Infinite Possibilities’.
Every business is mobile these days! Whether you have a large, medium or small business or you are a sole proprietor working in a home office, you are on the go and you need business intelligence tools that provide mobile BI dashboards and advanced data discovery and analytics to support your business decision, identify issues and opportunities and keep your business moving in the right direction. In the past, BI tools were difficult to use and limited or restricted to access within the office or by certain individuals in the organization. You need ready to use, out of the box business intelligence, without restrictive licensing.
