Gotchas That Can Get Ya in 2012: Critical Issues in Supporting Self-Service BI

Webinar Abstract
The recession has forced many companies to do much more with much less – IT is no exception. On the other hand, making smarter decisions faster has never been more important. BI is critical to the very survival of our enterprises but how do we get BI into the hands of business decisionmakers with such limited technical resources?

The answer is self-service BI: creating an environment in which business users can self-select the appropriate analytics, reports, queries from a “buffet table” of BI capabilities with minimal IT intervention. Creating this buffet table requires rethinking how IT and business deliver BI. New challenges must be faced and resolved. This webcast will discuss the top issues BI implementers must tackle to create a sustainable and maintainable self-service BI environment in 2012.

What You Will Learn:

• The four components of a self-service environment
• The top issues facing IT implementers
• Suggestions to resolve these issues
