Essential Elements of Good BI Software

Every BI demo looks good for 30 minutes. What matters is which features your team still uses a year later. This webinar walks through the features worth insisting on, the BI applications most teams end up needing, and two live demo applications you can open and click through yourself.

In this webinar

What you'll learn

BI tools come in every shape and price, from a few hundred dollars to a few hundred thousand. This replay is about telling them apart. Here's what it covers:

The features worth insisting on

Which capabilities belong on your must-have list, so you have a checklist in hand the next time a vendor walks you through a demo.

The BI applications you can't live without

The application types most teams end up needing, shown as working software over real data rather than as slides.

Advanced features you won't find everywhere

Capabilities that separate a tool you keep from one you replace in two years, and where most BI products stop short.

Try them yourself
