Best Practices for Deploying Collaborative BI

Today's organizations are complex webs of interacting groups and projects often created on-the-fly with demands for near-immediate results. Providing a systematic means for users to draw rapid, actionable insights and then share those insights is a contestant challenge. Traditional BI tools require time-consuming IT deployment and trained BI specialists. Even when BI is deployed, installations often falsely make assumptions that all data relates, no new datasets emerge and nothing ever changes. The end-result is typically frustrated users, overwhelmed IT departments and costly systems that don't deliver.

More and more organizations are overcoming these challenges and delivering collaborative BI capabilities in real-time. These organizations know that success comes when more than just their analysts and BI specialists need to understand data and metrics – they know that everyday people must have their data needs served. They know that information quickly and easily analyzed and shared across the organization is as critical to effective BI as the BI system itself.

Learn how to:

• How people really use analytics in their work processes - how analyses are conducted and then how that information is used for collaboration and consensus
• How effective organizations are sharing interactive analysis with others and building analytic templates without the overhead and delay from IT development/test/production
• How organizations are getting more than just BI specialists and hard-core analysts to use and benefit from fast, lightweight, collaborative BI
• How to find and qualify next generation BI tools that can scale, that can react in real-time and that are accessible via the web

Join us for an informative seminar that will explore important approaches to these questions.
