An all-time high 48% of organizations say cloud BI is either “critical” or “very important” to their operations in 2019. Marketing & Sales place the greatest importance on cloud BI in 2019. Small organizations of 100 employees or less are the most enthusiastic, perennial adopters and supporters of cloud BI. The most preferred cloud BI providers are Amazon Web Services and Microsoft Azure.

These and other insights are from Dresner Advisory Services’ 2019 Cloud Computing and Business Intelligence Market Study. The 8th annual report focuses on end-user deployment trends and attitudes toward cloud computing and business intelligence (BI), defined as the technologies, tools, and solutions that rely on one or more cloud deployment models. What makes the study noteworthy is the depth of focus around the perceived benefits and barriers for cloud BI, the importance of cloud BI, and current and planned usage.
