How Embedded Business Intelligence Can Benefit Your Business

Business intelligence (BI) tools are nothing new; most businesses have been using them in some form or another for years. However, what is relatively new is the concept of embedded BI. In a nutshell, embedded BI refers to BI tools and capabilities that are built directly into business applications, as opposed to being offered as a separate, stand-alone product. And there are plenty of good reasons why your business should consider making the switch to embedded BI.

For one thing, embedded BI tools tend to be much more user-friendly than their stand-alone counterparts. This is because they are designed to work seamlessly with the business application in which they are housed. As a result, users don't need to go through a lengthy and complicated setup process or invest time and effort in learning how to use the tool. Instead, they can start using it right away to get the insights they need to make better business decisions.

Another advantage of embedded BI is that it tends to be much more affordable than stand-alone BI tools. This is because businesses don't need to purchase a separate license for the tool; instead, they can simply pay for the application that contains the embedded BI functionality. In many cases, this means paying only a fraction of the cost of what they would otherwise spend on a stand-alone BI solution.

Finally, because embedded BI tools are designed to work with specific business applications, they tend to be much more tailored to the needs of those applications—and, as a result, much more effective at meeting the needs of users. Stand-alone BI tools, on the other hand, are often generic and lack specific functionality that would be beneficial for users of certain business applications.

Conclusion:

If your business isn't already using embedded BI tools, now is the time to consider making the switch. Embedded BI offers many advantages over stand-alone BI solutions—including greater user friendliness, affordability, and effectiveness. All of these factors can contribute to better decision making within your organization—so what are you waiting for? Start reaping the benefits of embedded BI today!
