In this multi-part blog, Nick shares some areas where self-service analytics deployments fail and how Qlik's analytic platform addresses them. Take it away Nick!

Self Service Analytics

Have you ever try to do something thinking you knew how, but ended up failing in the end?  This is frequently what happens when self-service BI is implemented based purely on past SQL, Reporting and traditional BI experiences.

As a principal BI solutions architect, it is part of my job to listen to companies looking at self-service BI including educating them on what I have learned from listening to others, especially on what can go wrong!

Self-service analytics is a way to allow business users & data analysts to answer their own questions by giving them access to various data sets and intuitive tools that can blend, filter & visualize these data sets. If you are planning to roll out a self-service analytics project to a large user base then read the attached PDF document that covers areas where self-service BI within larger scales can and will fail when using traditional query-based solutions.

Have a comment or question? Post it below and Nick or myself will be happy to address it for you.
