How is Cloud BI helping Businesses maintain Competitive Edge
Cloud BI has numerous benefits over on-premises BI solutions. Companies that are using this setup are already witnessing advantages such as increased performance, lower costs and an agile BI setup, to name a few. Cloud based BI has given businesses, real-time access to business critical data.
 1. Low Cost and Faster ROI
With no additional hardware and database requirement, cloud BI is faster to set up when compared to on-premise BI. With faster setup and pay-as-you-go pricing, moving your BI setup to the cloud could actually mean a comparatively lower TCO as well as quicker ROI. Beyond setup, the operational overhead drastically decreases when opting for Cloud BI. For starters, your IT team is freed up for core tasks as software updates and scheduled maintenance is part of your Cloud service provider’s basic SLA.
2. Agility and Scalability
Cloud BI solutions are designed to match with the increasing demands of the market. They can be easily scaled up and down as per the requirement, and this can be done without having to install any additional hardware or database. Cloud BI is also known for its agility. Does “performance tuning” sound like an all too familiar overhead? One can easily add dashboards and run complex reports on cloud BI without worrying about the processing speed or the number of users simultaneously logged in. In a traditional on-premise setup these little things could cause glitches and slow down your day. To counter glitches in an on-premise setup, the only way out would be to heavily invest money and time, in upgrading hardware. With a cloud based setup, it’s only a matter of a few clicks – you can ramp up or down your resources in a jiffy!

Many organizations believe that their sensitive data is unbreachable as long it stays on-premise, secure in their corporate server.
