Today’s Business Intelligence market is in the midst of an evolution, giving businesses many options and choices for BI tools and vendors. But, this plethora of tools can make it difficult to sort through promise and claims.
ElegantJ BI is built on the core principle of business user empowerment and BI democratization. We believe that informed clients are better to make an educated decision and choose the BI tool that is right for their organization and business users.
Let us help your organization sort through the common BI myths!
Myth #1: All ‘Self-Serve’ BI Tools Are Suitable for Business Users
So-called ‘self-serve’ desktop-based BI tools do not deliver the intended benefits of true self-serve BI nor do they empower business users. Desktop- based tools are designed for developers and users with technical skills- NOT for business users. These ‘static packaged dashboards’ do not achieve business user empowerment or the goals of a self-serve BI initiative. With ElegantJ BI, you can make your developers AND business users happy!
Myth #2: True Self-Serve BI Tools Will Compromise Data Governance
Data Anarchy exists because the enterprise does not have a manageable method of achieving data security while allowing for dynamic user access. ElegantJ BI allows true Data Governance so users can access a controlled centralized semantic meta-data layer without direct access to underlying data sources.
Myth #3: Business Users Do Not Need Ad Hoc Data Analysis
Restrictive business intelligence does not empower users – it renders prescribed dashboards and reports. ElegantJ BI believes business users need ad-hoc analysis, a 360 view of data and the flexibility to interact with data from varied perspectives and angles.
Myth #4: You Don’t Need KPIs and Balanced Scorecards to Manage Corporate Performance
Performance Management takes more than static displays and monitoring of gauges on an exotic dashboard. ElegantJ BI understands and employs the business logic within Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and Balanced Scorecards; and our BI tools enable quick implementation of meaningful corporate performance management.
Myth #5: It is Expensive and Time-Consuming to Give Mobile BI to Business Users
Every organization wants Mobile BI, but when an organization implements a so-called ‘self-serve, mobile BI’ solution, the obstacles impede true mobile access and require numerous iterations and design and development initiatives. ElegantJ BI uses a ‘Design Once, Use Anywhere’ approach to ensure seamless access across desktops, tablets and mobiles without any additional development efforts.
Myth #6: You Need Data Scientists to Employ Predictive Analysis in Your Organization
With ElegantJ BI Plug n’ Play Predictive Analysis Tools, business users can perform predictive analysis and create their own time series forecasting, associative, clustering, classification analytics using drag n’ drop functionality, without the assistance of a statistician or data scientist. ElegantJ BI helps you create Citizen Data Scientists using Plug n’ Play Predictive Analytics.
