insanity = doing the samething over and over again &expecting different results.
Business Intelligence has of coursebeen around for decades.
During the past few years, dramatic changes have been occurring in the world
of business intelligence (BI). These changes all go towards one goal: removing the
barriers firmly set by the traditional BI vendors born from an arcane architecture designed
over 40 years ago.
Today a staggeringly high proportion of companies simply do nothing other than continue to store
the increasing amounts of data by adding additional storage mediums as and when required – almost
like there are banking it for a rainy day.
It’s well documented that higher performing organisations are 4.5 times more likely to use the data than
their lower performing counterparts and almost 3 times more likely to have significant analytical
capabilities. Its fact that analytics-driven organizations outperform their peers in every metric that matters.
Are you drowning in data but thirsting for insight…

Martin Butler Research
Business intelligence (BI) technology holds out much promise, but experience would tend to indicate that
it can be difficult to use, requiring specialist skills and imposing considerable latency between need and
information delivery. Bi24 addresses these issues for many business needs and the ease-of-use has to be
seen to be appreciated. The technology is built on the well regarded Lucene open software search
technology and because of this most things are possible.
Ovum
The value proposition of Bi24 is found in the way the product provides the end user with the
ability to search, analyze, and view data. Bi24 comes with the usual views associated with
data analysis solutions such as tabular, cross-tabs, and graphs, all of which are fully
interactive in that Bi24 allows the user to drill down into the source data.
Sophisticated Venn diagrams enable complex data relationships to
be easily viewed and analyzed, and Bi24 can be
configured to deliver visually rich
dashboards.
