You've got charts, now what?
Executive summaries, logistics management and sales tools have gone digital, I mean really digital. Gone are the complicated excel charts, crystal reports and complex data driven applications in favor an easier approach using Tableau, Power BI and QLik. The need for a developer between you and your data has been all but eliminated and replaced with a Business Intelligence Analyst. A few clicks from these tools and you are ow seeing beautiful visualizations of your data in ways often unimaginable and in near or real time.
So now what? You have charts, summary, they interact, you can filter them and you can even have different views depending on role with expiration dates. Is this actionable intelligence? Yes. Is it easily accessible? Depends. With Microsoft Power BI you can now embed your visualizations of data into your existing applications and pass along access and roles along with your reports. An executive summary can now pull the trigger on intelligence within the confines of your existing process and applications all with a few clicks.
To learn how to add Power BI to your existing systems please see the link below. While mobile visualizations are still a complicated process, creating tablet versions of actionable intelligence visualizations with the ability to do something about it is now a 4 hour or less process.
So What's Next?
Ever watch Iron Man and experienced Tony Start opening maps, charts and information in virtual 3D space? If we marry Power BI Embedded with Samsung VR, Microsoft Hololens and Google Glass V2 you will now get visuals intelligence, your company's applications and the freedom to see anything anywhere all in one device.
Free yourself from your laptop to make decisions on your devices, in mid-air literally and on your audio devices using Microsoft Cortana, Siri and Amazon Echo. Imagine telling your watch to give you the latest service level data, pull out your car and order your Uber without touching a single device. Welcome to the next frontier of hands free intelligence.
