What is Business Intelligence(BI)?

The entire purpose of Business Intelligence is to support and facilitate better business decisions. BI allows organizations access to information that is critical to the success of multiple areas including sales, finance, marketing, and a multitude of other areas and departments. Effectively leveraging BI will empower your business with increased actionable data, provide great insights into industry trends, and facilitate a more strategically geared decision-making model.

Some of the leading BI tools available in market

• Tableau:- Tableau is a mature product that is used by enterprise-level companies all over the globe. The BI tool’s maturity provides a wealth of community knowledge, a vast amount of visualizations, and data connectors. The higher price point, which is certainly a major factor, might not make Tableau the best choice for smaller organizations.
• Amazon Quicksight:- The Amazon product gives users the ability to source data in a hybrid manner, pulling from both on-premise and cloud data sources. Visualizations can be displayed on any web browser and with any iOS device. From a pricing standpoint, Amazon stands by their “pay-per-session” option as a way to provide powerful insights at an affordable price
• Microsoft Power BI:- The software gives users the ability to create live dashboards, powerful and plentiful visualizations, and paginated reports. Microsoft lessens the steepness of the learning curve by providing an effective learning environment along with a strong user community.
