It can optimize technology infrastructure and mitigate the issue of data silos and complex data mining and data gathering.
• Organizations leave 97% of gathered data unused – Data is often misunderstood, misused or unused simply because team members and the enterprise do not know how to leverage, gather and analyze the data, or because the IT and/or data science team is short on resources and does not have the time to produce reports.
