ZDnet lists BI in top Five for 2012
ZDnet blogger Heather Clancy ranks Business Intelligence second in an entry entitled “Five Essential Technologies for Small Businesses”.
Heather reckons “big data” will be adopted in a major way by small companies in 2012, citing an SMB Technology Group study which indicates 16 percent of small and 29 percent of medium sized businesses have bought a BI solution in the past two years. A similar proportion plan to make BI investments over the next twelve months.
2012 is likely to be “a transformational year” for small business technology, says Heather.
Top of the list came tablet computers such as the Apple iPad. Also featuring were social media marketing tools, cloud-driven storage and disaster recovery services and video-enabled collaboration applications.
