I am agile in the rest of my business, so why does my BI System still look like a monolith?

One of the biggest challenges of business intelligence has always been balancing the short-term business need for more, better and faster information to make decisions, and the long-term IT desire for the right systems and processes. It’s a classic business vs. IT challenge. Even the simplest reporting needs seem to accidentally turn into big IT projects: vendor and tool evaluation, architecture and sizing, security, data integration and cleansing, business rules, metrics and KPI development, user-based dashboards, etc.

GoodData provides a way to break through this traditional barrier by providing an on demand business intelligence system that’s perfect for project-based adoption. To get started with GoodData, all you need is a username, password and some data to analyze. That’s less time than it takes to schedule a demo with the other guys. We believe that the faster you can answer the first question, the more likely you are to ask the second one. That often means more data, more reports, more users, more collaboration.

GoodData scales up elastically to multi-gigabyte data warehouses with dozens of reports and hundreds of users. In fact, some of GoodData’s largest and most sophisticated customers started with a simple project.

GoodData is the perfect platform for agile, project-based business intelligence.
