Check us out in Jennifer’s new article : 9 Common BI Software Mistakes (and How to Avoid Them)

Excerpt:

BI Mistake No. 8: Insufficient training (and miscalculating the costs of training).“Many organizations exhaust their BI budgets on software licenses and a few short weeks of training for their users,” says Steve Litwin, president, Litcom, a provider of IT consulting. However, “today’s BI systems are complex structures that require far more training in order for users to be able to acquire genuine value from them. [And] ongoing training is [necessary] so that users become familiar and comfortable with the system,” he says. “For example, organizations can host weekly lunch sessions where a different aspect of the BI system is discussed.” In addition, organizations should make sure the software they install comes with online training videos that help users “become better acquainted with the new BI system.”
