Eckerson Report - Strategies for Driving Adoption and Usage with BI and Analytics
An exclusive Eckerson survey
This report is based on a global survey of 214 data & analytics leaders conducted by BARC and Eckerson Group.
It focuses specifically on the adoption, usage, and value of business intelligence (BI) and analytics tools, and generally on the effectiveness of data & analytics programs.
Although adoption rates for BI/analytics tools remain stuck in the 20% range, usage is increasing.
