What difference does it make if end users are in the driver’s seat and sidestep the IT department when buying and deploying business intelligence solutions? What’s the best way to operationalize BI? Read the findings of Dresner’s “Wisdom of Crowds Business Intelligence Market Study.”

Sand Hill Group conducted a study in September - October 2011 to gauge enterprise CIOs, CTOs and other IT managers' insights into the challenges, opportunities, best practices and lessons learned regarding their companies’ efforts and policies in transitioning to enterprise mobility.

Based on 20 in-depth interviews of enterprise CIOs, CISOs, principals and vice presidents, as well as a quantitative survey of 53 enterprise executives, the Sand Hill report, “Leaders in Enterprise Mobile Strategies: Tug of War Between Business Value and Risks,” details use cases, driving factors, and issues around security, the Bring Your Own Device model, and fragmentation of the market. The report includes a roadmap that enables enterprises to take action now and seize the dynamic opportunities of a mobile environment.

Join us for a one-hour Webinar on December 8 to hear key takeaways from the study and participate in a panel discussion with experts from Sybase and Cognizant who will share their views and reactions to the study findings.
