Excel and Business Intelligence

There has been much talk for years now among IT experts, about getting away from Excel for business reporting, while the reality has tended to move the other way.

In my view, much of the case for specialist Business Intelligence Software is more a case for structure and control in business reporting, rather than proving that we are all using the wrong software.

You can see more discussion on this in an earlier post:

I thought this week, that I would share with you a recent article on the website of Investech.com that gathers the views of 27 Excel experts on the subject, including a few names you might recognise, such as Chandoo, Mynda Treacy and myself. Unfortunately, you can tell by the brevity of my comments that they caught me at a busy time!
