挑战

Cisco, a worldwide leader in networking, was sitting on mountains of rich data that could empower individuals throughout the company. However, the company was facing challenges in transforming this data into actionable business intelligence. Cisco has a broad array of products, each with their own cadence of product releases. Additionally, Cisco customers also have different products in their deployments which create complexity with respect to support and maintenance for individual customers. With nearly 500 million lines of complex data, the company wanted an easy and efficient way to deliver quality data to the consumers of the information. Cisco launched a “business intelligence (BI) bake-off” over five years ago in search of a comprehensive BI solution that could help fuel business insights.

解决方案

After exploring several BI platforms, Cisco chose QlikView as it best fit their needs. The QlikView Business Discovery Platform delivers self-service BI that empowers business users by enabling innovative decision-making. Not only does QlikView bring together data from multiple sources into a single view, its dynamic applications can be rolled out in days. Using QlikView, Cisco created a dashboard that presented data from its large installed base which resides in a QlikView server. With data in Oracle, Hadoop and Teradata, Cisco consolidated the installed base data into QlikView for easy user access. The dashboard became a go-to resource for sales operations as individuals were able to rapidly slice and dice data and assemble a view of information useful to them and therefore their customers.
