There is a growing trend amongst companies using analytics to identify gaps, trends and benchmark their business with others. Companies spend billions of dollars annually on business intelligence tools for the simple reason that it drives the top and bottom line. According to Gartner, business intelligence has been the number one technology for the past three years running and surveys have shown that it is the second most important “application and technology issue” after anti-virus protection.
However, deriving insights from data analytics is NOT the domain of large companies. Even small companies (SMEs) and start-ups can benefit from it. Data Analytics is NOT just about IT solutions and tools; rather it is a methodology and process that is independent of IT. Insights from Data Analytics is NOT solely about amassing large amounts of information and data and applying technology to see trends and patterns; it is about knowing what to collect in a timely manner and that will feed into and add value to the decision-making process.
