Advantages of Web-Based Business Intelligence

Web-based business intelligence offers several large advantages over its desktop-based or fat-client counterparts.

The standardization of the cloud infrastructure across all organizations and the centralization of software platforms heighten the benefits of Web-based applications to IT departments.

Usability and general familiarity also make end-user adoption more plausible. Furthermore, the ability to utilize Web-based platforms to bring about a centralized environment for reporting and analysis makes the execution of Web-based BI attractive to many organizations.

An online-only application avoids the manpower cost of support desktop software for dozen, hundreds, or even thousands of users. When all those involved work with the same software it becomes easier to support users with queries or concerns.

Web-based tools offer the ability to share information with any number of end users, be they in-house or overseas, with minimal labor. These reports are usually in the form of dashboards and scorecards. They enable users to manage performance, predict future outcomes, and process any number of other business functions.
