Author: Jace McLean.  / What 2 Surveys Say About the Value of Centralized Data Back in October 2021, we took a look at some data we collected at Big Data London (BDL) related to companies’ data strategies. Since then, we’ve collected even more data on the subject. At Web Summit in November, we set up the same survey machine we took to BDL, and again asked attendees a few questions about their data environments. You can find the updated dashboard (aka the Swag Machine) toward the bottom of this post. But first, let’s zoom in on the same ... Read More

But as organizations increasingly turn to the cloud, BI platforms have a unique opportunity to truly change how data is gathered and analyzed. The cloud’s implications on this more modern kind of BI cannot be understated. With traditional BI, data was hardware-bound and difficult to offload into digestible and usable formats. But with the cloud, data is more readily accessible, no matter where it lives, opening the door to a framework that is setting organizations apart from their peers: Modern BI for All™.  Traditional BI vs. modern BI  BI-platform providers have long focused on delivering easily digestible and actionable insights. But that doesn’t mean they’ve overwhelmingly ... Read More

Moving from traditional, out-of-the-box data and analytics tools to a modern BI platform not only allows you to get better reports and dashboards, but gain a new competitive advantage.  That’s one major property development company’s belief, at least. And during a recent Domo-hosted webinar, Wood Partners’ business intelligence manager, Ritwik Bhatia, made that feeling clear.  “We’re really proud of the fact that (in the last three years) not only have we built the type of reporting experience we wanted to build,” said Bhatia, “but it was so easy for our property directors to buy in, and for our asset management team to use it—and we’re seeing the results.”  Wood Partners started its journey toward becoming a modern-BI-driven organization ...

Feed: Domo Blog. Author: Scott Resch. At Domo, we believe we’ve created the kind of modern BI platform that organizations large and small want and need, even if they already have a number of good BI tools in their tool belt. Nothing tells us we’re warranted in carrying such a belief more than customer feedback and client renewals. But what others have to say factors, too. Which is why, as we take stock in what was accomplished in 2021 by looking at the variety and volume of awards and accolades Domo earned this year (see list below), we feel particularly good about how our people and technology are making a positive impact ...

Nowadays, decisions have more wide-ranging effects on the business. And decisions can be fueled by data in a way they’ve never been fueled before. By adopting decision intelligence (DI), organizations can gain the ability to make ... Read More
