Focus Surveys takes a look into data-driven organizations; Is it really worth the Investment?
Data has always been crucial to businesses. The decisions you make for your organizations is based on the data you have. If the data you have is faulty, outdated or missing key data points, you cannot make profitable or sustainable decisions; your reasoning on this type of data will be flawed to some extent. In today’s fast-paced world, where changes occur at a moment’s notice, data is a lot more complex and rapidly changing and worth a lot when processed appropriately.
That type of data is essentially referred to as big data. Organizations of the day all have to deal with it indirectly or directly if they want to remain in business. The yesteryear analysis methods and techniques can no longer keep up with today’s data sets, vast in size and complexity, structured, unstructured, and semi structured formats. The advanced technological platforms can keep up with it; unfortunately, these specialized tools cost money. Is it worth the Investment? Let’s take a look.
Advantages of keeping up with big data
