Mobile Business Intelligence - Data at your fingertips
The business landscape is changing drastically, and companies today must act and react in real time if they want to survive. With the mobile workforce expanding – as much as 73 percent this year alone, according to IDC1 – it’s critical that everyone, everywhere, has immediate access to timely, complete information (business intelligence) to make faster, better business decisions.
The growth of mobile business intelligence
Companies of all types and sizes are realizing the advantages of mobile business intelligence. Just two short years ago, Aberdeen research showed that only 17 percent of companies were delivering corporate data visualised to mobile appliances.2 By May, 2010 those numbers had significantly increased. Almost one quarter of survey respondents already had mobile BI in place, while another 31 percent were planning to deploy mobile BI within a year
