Analysts need to get to data-driven insights as fast as possible because speed to insight is key in today’s business environment. Getting to these insights involves quickly going from preparing the data to visualizing it. As decision makers recognize the value of visual analytics for their organizations, they realize that analysts must find ways of tackling the increasing volumes and complexity of the data required to create richer visualizations. In addition, analysts also struggle with the following issues1:

 

  • 52% have to use too many tools and processes to prep data
  • 37% have to wait for another department to get data
  • 30% can’t access the data needed for analysis
  • 18% don’t have the skills to prepare the right dataset

Unfortunately, overcoming these issues is a critical and often time-consuming process. We commonly hear that analysts spend up to 90% of their time preparing data instead of analyzing it.
