We can all easily access, create and share photos, messages, and videos every day. Yet we can’t simply access and consume data in the same way. Increasing data access and making it available for everyone to use therefore provides a real opportunity to increase value.

Democratizing data means allowing organizations, employees and individuals to effortlessly access reliable – data-driven – information, at any time, without needing technical skills.

The goal of data democratization is to make data fully accessible and understandable, to promote its reuse and to allow everyone to have a straightforward, immediate and memorable data experience, just like every other type of content.

Organizations understand how data can be used to improve internal efficiency and decision-making, create new services, and generate additional revenue. It enables better communication and allows organizations to build engaging, long-term relationships with internal and external stakeholders, based on transparency and trust.

In our latest study, data leaders identified multiple benefits from better use of their data: including higher internal efficiency, improved decision-making, increased competitiveness, enhanced innovation, and greater transparency.

However, just 50% of organizations are actually engaged in projects to better exploit and use their data.

This is because organizations face a number of challenges to data reuse:

  • Users are unaware of data’s potential;
  • Data is siloed within departments inside organizations;
  • Data remains the property of experts.

How can you address these challenges and implement a strategy to better use data across your organization? Download our ebook to find out.

Data democratization impacts everyone. Through data, employees make better decisions, partners are more engaged, citizens have a better understanding of public services and how public bodies are performing, while consumers are able to engage more deeply with brands.

In order to achieve success, organizations must:

  • Make data easily available to all internal employees, not just data experts;
  • Offer their data “As a Service” via data services to support their ecosystems;
  • Set up data portals which are open to the general public to better inform, communicate, and engage external stakeholders.

In our ebook, you’ll find a selection of relevant case studies from our customers: Bloomberg Associates, BPCE, Kering, Lamie mutuelle, North Carolina Office of State Budget and Management, Schneider Electric, SFR, SNCF, UK Power Networks, and Western Parkland Councils.
