Our world is becoming more and more connected. Data, machines, people and processes are interlinked in ways we could only imagine before. With 15 billion web-enabled devices and an emerging global middle class poised to exceed five billion, transaction, machine-to-machine, and conversation data is doubling worldwide every 18 months.
While this can be daunting to think about, immense, untapped value in this data – and a huge opportunity to translate that value into tangible business outcomes. By accessing the data and making it fit for analytic use, we help our customers identify trends that reveal new markets, channels, and innovations. The bottom line: Data and its corresponding insight can be catalysts for employee empowerment, decision making, and an increased reach and relevance in the marketplace.
An Untapped Opportunity
Many organizations remain challenged on how to capitalize on the value of their data. The most common obstacles include:
Not enough access to needed data - It’s hard to manage and consume all available information when there is so much of it. Using only the most accessible information can mean missing new signals.
Too many systems - Many organizations rely on a patchwork of products, approaches, and methodologies. Managing such a mashup can quickly become unwieldy and expensive – and lead to suboptimal decision making.
Outdated BI tools - Many key reports are based on week- or month-old data, when the pace of business demands real-time analysis encompassing predictive analytics, visualization tools, and data discovery.
