Business Intelligence Seen as Lucrative and Attractive Despite Challenges
July 26, 2012
With economic woes still plaguing much of the world—and for the sake of this particular discussion business driven European nations—it is no wonder that extracting business insights and opportunities have more than a little appeal. Unfortunately, this does not seem to be an easy fix according to what research firm Gartner has found. More on this subject is reported in, “Gartner Says CIO’s Rank Business Intelligence, Analytics No. 1 Issue in 2012.”
The report accumulates the views of almost 2500 CIO’s in 45 different countries and 37 different industries and shows that companies see business intelligence as a challenge.
The article states:
“Analytics and Business Intelligence tops mobile technologies and Cloud computing after a gap of 2 years as the biggest concern. Another clear cut challenge is the enormous lack of resources and skilled staff available to meet the Business intelligence and analytics challenge as well. 80% of CIO’s said that they need further improved resources to meet the challenge. The lowest area requiring significant improvement is Finance at 50%.”
Will companies fuel their funds and resources into this area now that an azure chip consultant says that they should? Probably, because all they seem to be looking for is the “next big thing” that will lead to a solution.
