As any good analyst knows, working with data is not the problem. Good analysts have the skill necessary to combine, split, merge, slice, aggregate, or summarize data any way you can imagine. However, is that enough?
Probably not..
What good does data do if you can’t communicate its meaning in a logical way. The day of sending a spreadsheet with pivot tables are heading out the door. Today users are wanting more. They are expecting more. And why is that?
Here are a few reasons users expect more from their data experiences:
- Google Analytics
- IPhone
- ITunes
- Amazon
These are just some of the companies leading the way in user interface. The days of cheezy HTML or excel graphs won’t cut it. Users quickly see they have to work to understand the information and move on.
The solution?
A complete toolbox of data tools and a team of professionals with tool experience. Today’s environment requires (along with some of our favorite vendors/partners):
- a storage solution
- an analysis tool
- a display layer
- Data Applied
- Custom solutions (Juice Analytics)
