For decades, the analytics/BI community has suffered from low user adoption (~30%).

Poor user adoption is the result when the analytics system fails to support the users full journey: from data – to insight – to action.

I know of companies that have been perpetually “doing cloud” for 10 years, but very few that have “done cloud” in a way that democratises and makes data accessible, with minimal pain points. Cloud is an enabler. It makes it easier to collect, analyse, and disseminate information.
