Further accelerating Incorta’s growth and expansion is a business and technology landscape where uncertainty and change is the new normal. For companies stuck in outdated data analytics systems and mindsets, it’s becoming more difficult to navigate volatility and manage risk – and these vulnerabilities are becoming impossible to ignore.

  • According to a recent IDC study, 70% of CEOs today acknowledge their organization needs to become more data driven and 87% of CXOs say that becoming more agile, integrated and data driven is their #1 priority over the next five years1. IDC also estimates worldwide spending on big data and analytics software will reach $27.3 billion this year2.
  • Meanwhile, new research from Ventana Research highlights where companies struggle most with data analytics: 55% of organizations report the most time-consuming task in analytics is preparing the data3. According to Ventana, 25% of organizations combine more than 20 data sources in their data preparation activities and 39% combine more than 104.
