Business intelligence tools are a type of software that is designed to retrieve, analyze and report data. This broad definition includes everything from spreadsheets, visual analytics, and querying software to data mining, warehousing, and decision engineering.

 

 

Most of the time, business intelligence tools are standalone tools or suites of tools that are targeted to a specific industry. You might have heard them referred to as “data warehouse appliances,” or as a bunch of letters strung together into acronyms (ERP, OLAP, CPM, CRM, etc).

 

 

Business intelligence is basically just getting important business information to decision makers when they need it -- in a way that they can actually use it. It’s a matter of figuring out what data you need, collecting it in a way that it’s meaningful, analyzing in a way that’s usable, and storing it in a way that you can keep referring to it in the future.

 

 

If you’re familiar with business intelligence tools at all, you’ve probably heard of at least one of the main makers of business intelligence tools out there: Oracle, Microsoft, SAS Institute, SAP, or Tableau. You may have used Microstrategy or IBM Cognos Series10 or QlikView.
