The Benefits of Cloud Business Intelligence
Business Intelligence was destined for the cloud. Historically, BI products have been delivered as hulking "behind-the-firewall" implementations. This forced IT staff to worry about the product's low level plumbing, required months if not years to fully implement and broke the bank. Chartio believes that businesses shouldn't have to worry about all that and instead focus on getting as much value and insight from the product and their data. Cloud BI solutions offer the following benefits:
- Faster Results
- Sharing Made Easy
- Lower Implementation Costs
- Lower Ongoing Costs
- Scalability, Scalability, Scalability
- Easier to Budget
Traditional on-premise BI products can take 12-18 months to fully implement. With Chartio, you can be setup within hours. Because we connect directly to your database, you don't have to worry about setting up complex data warehouses or even sending us an entire copy of your data. All you do is point our application at your database and you should be up and running.
Since we handle all the hardware, software and the nitty gritty in between, your business can focus on analyzing your data.
Since Chartio is web based, sharing your dashboards and reports is extremely easy. If your team is distributed or if your firm has offices around the world, all you need to invite a colleague to join your project is their email address. Once invited to the platform, they'll be able to create, edit and share visualizations and reports themselves.
Since we handle all the hardware, software and pretty much everything between, the savings get passed on to you. In addition, since the setup is lightning fast, you don't have to waste money on system integrators or other expensive services just in order to get started.
With Chartio, you pay only for what you use. Unlike traditional on-premise solutions, you don't have to pay for servers, patches and expensive IT staff time. Instead, our simple subscription service lets you choose the plan that's right for you and it covers everything from hardware, software, maintenance and support.
Scalability, Scalability, Scalability
Chartio scales with you. You can start by deploying to a smaller team and only later scaling up throughout the enterprise. Either way, you control how much you want to use Chartio and can cancel at anytime. Our platform is as flexible as your needs.
Traditional BI solutions typically required big chunks of the capital budget (CapEx). Chartio on the other hand is a monthly subscription, which can be allocated to your operating expenses (OpEx). Say goodbye to complex licensing structures and CapEx budget approvals.
