The first era of Business Intelligence is over. Traditional Business Intelligence software can't keep up with the dynamic business environment professionals work in today. Instead, people will inform their own actions using analytic experiences they create and control. Is it time for Business Intelligence 2.0? In two new whitepapers authored by Neil Raden of Hired Brains, Inc. -- "NextGen Software or Software for the NextGen?*” and "The Speed Society and Its Enemies*” -- Spotfire explores what some are calling Business Intelligence 2.0, in which users must master business data and orchestrate their responses in ever shorter periods of time.

"NextGen Software or Software for the Next Gen?*” explains, "the current generation of workers selectively incorporated technology into their work; the next generation (NextGen) incorporates technology into every aspect of their lives.” With previous and current generations of workers reluctant to fully accept a life of full immersion in technology, Business Intelligence vendors made products that were simple-to-use and limited in functionality, with standardization taking emphasis over expertise. Vendors that will survive and prosper will need to develop software that addresses the entire Business Intelligence experience, rather than providing merely Business Intelligence tools and functions. Interactive, visual analytic applications change the way business users experience data and information, facilitating team collaboration across time zones, industries, languages - all in a matter of seconds.

“The Speed Society and its Enemies*” argues that mainstream Business Intelligence tools are the enemies of speed and efficiency, because they “still operate with a reporting mentality and are driven by data warehousing technology and approach…They are enemies of speed because they lack…[the] ability to package analytical work and distribute it, not as reports, but as interactive applications that allow the viewer to engage at the level they are comfortable with - asking and answering their own questions on demand.” In a world where companies are increasingly equal in efficiencies, the key to differentiation will be speed. The paper outlines a faster solution with the advent of Business Intelligence 2.0.
