Tool selection is an important part of the Business Intelligence implementation process and many software companies have flooded the space in recent years. At Guident, we have implemented hundreds of BI solutions using technologies from many of the industry leading BI software vendors. All of the leading BI software products have very powerful features and Guident believes they can be used successfully when implemented properly. However, it does require a very experienced BI professional to evaluate the differences and determine what factors really impact a given implementation. Guident has our own set of criteria to help our clients with their tool selection, but we’d like to hear from you. Let us know what criteria you are considering or have considered when evaluating a BI tool for your enterprise reporting needs.
Leave us a comment and we will incorporate your criteria and thoughts into a follow-up blog entry. We’ll collect and consolidate your comments into one of the following 6 categories:
- Semantic/Metadata layer
- Reports
- Dashboards
- Security
- Advanced Querying and Ad hoc Reporting
- Out of the Box Solutions
When leaving comments, please let us know the criteria you are using to evaluate a tool and the category your criteria fits into.
