De-risking the Platform Decision Behind Building Enterprise Intelligence

Better business intelligence and decision-making insights are always the goal. No matter what that means to you, or what various types of intelligence you have in play, what we've seen time and time again is that good insights rely on a full view of your business data.

We'll discuss how our partnerships with many of the top data platforms, and our work helping businesses determine the best fit-for-purpose for their needs, have led to discoveries on major gotchas, key prerequisites, and how to avoid the "stickiness" traditionally built into many of these platforms.

The landscape is evolving, and a good plan can help you navigate it in a way that keeps your options open and delivers the value you need while working with the data you have.

Discussion areas:

  • Choosing the right data platform for your organization's needs
  • Common implementation pitfalls and how to avoid them
  • Key prerequisites for long-term success
  • Understanding vendor lock-in and reducing platform "stickiness"
  • Lessons learned from real-world customer engagements

Agenda:

8:15 - 8:30 am check-in, light breakfast & networking

8:30 - 10:00 am meeting
