01 What is mobile BI?
In the era of big data changes, some "laymen" are asking, "What is mobile BI? Is it different from ordinary BI?"
Mobile BI (Mobile Business Intelligence) refers to the realization of management and decision-making anytime and anywhere through the use of mobile terminal equipment. Mobile BI is not only about viewing data on the mobile terminal, but also involves the full link scenarios of BI, such as obtaining business data and analysis results, accessing enterprise BI applications, realizing multi-party mobile terminal collaboration, and making decisions or actions on subscriptions and early warnings.
If BI is to transform massive amounts of data into actionable insights, thereby affecting the strategic and tactical decisions of enterprises. Then mobile BI is to move the data analysis and decision-making from the computer to our hands.
In the modern society where "the mobile phone is almost equal to everything", do we still need to sit still in front of the computer to read data reports and make analysis and decision-making?
The answer is obvious. Mobile BI can eliminate time and space constraints, "move" enterprise data, and transmit it to any mobile device in real time. Whether it is corporate executives, technical backbones or business grassroots, mobile BI can be used anytime and anywhere.
02 From BI to mobile BI
The necessary capabilities of BI products lie in stability and durability, high speed, high performance, beautiful pages, etc. The core can be summarized as follows:
1. One-stop data processing capabilities (storage, fusion, cleaning, analysis, query);
2. Lightweight deployment capability;
3. Self-service analysis capabilities;
4. Integrated mobile BI capabilities.
Among them, mobile BI capabilities have been valued by more and more enterprises, even as an important part of IT strategy. Due to the maturity of mobile Internet technology, company management decision makers, business backbones, and front-line business personnel can all work on mobile devices. For example, based on mobile BI, corporate decision makers and managers can take out mobile devices such as mobile phones and Pads to check the business status of the company during business trips, such as airplanes, high-speed trains, or lying on the sofa; Keep a close eye on performance, pay attention to various early warning information, and give timely feedback.
So what core capabilities should a good mobile BI product have besides being able to view data anytime, anywhere? I think there are 5 more points:
1. Multi-terminal (system) seamless integration;
2. Low-code and low-threshold mobile terminal development capabilities;
3. Data Kanban with thousands of faces;
4. Timely and reliable risk warning;
5. Safe and fine-grained authority control.
In the process of rapid development of enterprises, data visualization analysis is essential, and mobile BI can make enterprise data alive and usable. At present, there are many mobile BI products on the market for enterprises to choose from, but there are not many mature and excellent products.
Let me take Guanyuan Data mobile BI as an example to introduce what a relatively mature mobile BI product should look like.
03 Mobile BI Portal
When using mobile BI products, we first open the mobile BI portal, that is, the mobile terminal of the data portal. Refer to the following schematic diagram:
A BI portal is equivalent to an "integrated desktop" for applications. The BI portal of Guanyuan Data provides a variety of presentation forms, can adapt to a variety of mobile terminal resolutions, and has low-code capabilities. We can freely arrange and combine various "mobile light applications" by "drag and drop", group them by department, or classify them according to analysis scenarios, and quickly complete the portal construction. Only the portal pages created by ourselves can truly meet the business scenarios and usage habits of the enterprise itself.
04 Mobile light application
Then, we will click and use one by one "small squares" in the BI portal, which are actually "mobile light applications". It refers to the application on the mobile terminal, which "extends" the original intelligent analysis application on the computer terminal to the mobile terminal. As I mentioned above, there are many mobile BI products on the market, but there are not many mature and excellent products. Guanyuan Data Mobile BI is one of the best. Why do you say that, you can look at the "mobile light application" of Guanyuan Data Mobile BI, where is its maturity and excellence.
At present, most mobile BI products in the market still have many problems, such as:
-
Requires independent development. If system integration is required, custom development is often required. Not only the development cycle is long, but also the cost is not small. And if it needs to be modified, even if it is a minor modification, it will be very troublesome;
-
The process of querying data is cumbersome, and even needs to keep the server and network environment consistent with the PC side;
-
The opening speed of the report is slow, the chart is poorly adaptive, often deformed, and the user experience is not good.
The mobile BI of Guanyuan Data has achieved standardized system integration and basically solved the above problems.
-
Simple development and integration: If you want single sign-on, based on mainstream standardized platforms (such as OAuth2.0\CAS), you can complete configuration, debugging, and launch on the same day; if you want to integrate into mainstream OA systems in the market, such as DingTalk, Enterprise WeChat, and Feishu Wait, through the background configuration, it can be easily integrated in half a day.
-
The construction process is worry-free: if you want to make a themed application, such as a store manager’s store management assistant, you only need to combine and configure the mobile terminal pages, and you can do it yourself, including minor repairs and changes, without the assistance of the IT team.
-
Comfortable interactive experience: multiple styles and components can be set, and multi-level navigation is no different from APP experience. The navigation style can also import the company's own ICON to create the company's unique brand visual effect.
-
Applications with thousands of faces: While complying with data security and ensuring data permissions, "customized applications" with thousands of faces can be built to maximize the different usage scenarios of different users.
Through standardization, the mobile BI of Guanyuan Data has greatly shortened the manpower and time costs of launching mobile light applications. So what does the app look like after it goes live? How do we use it?
Here we take the enterprise WeChat as an example. After completing the light application configuration, we can directly view the data dashboard on the WeChat terminal and complete the data analysis. In case of an emergency, you can also receive timely warnings and reminders through your mobile phone to avoid business risks.
05 Mobile page
So how to create a mobile light application? Is the process complicated? not. We use Guanyuan Data Mobile BI to freely move and edit cards, and simply drag and drop to complete the page construction, and what you see is what you get.
It can be found that the pages, applications, and portals of Guanyuan Data Mobile BI are very friendly to business personnel. Various kanbans and applications can be built independently by business personnel, basically do not need the assistance of IT personnel, and can be used by themselves, which largely avoids the shortcomings of high investment costs and long development cycles of most mobile BI on the market.
06 The future of domestic mobile BI can be expected
In the past, our data management focused more on databases and Excel reports for data collection and statistics, which was not efficient. In the following period of time, some companies with leading concepts took the lead in introducing foreign BI products, hoping to get through the data in the enterprise, sort out the data process, and then optimize enterprise management, reduce costs and increase efficiency.
Now, traditional BI is gradually unable to meet the real-time changing business needs of enterprises due to problems such as slow deployment speed, high cost, and complicated use. As a result, some domestic BIs including Guanyuan Data have caught up and launched various agile BI products, including mobile BI and so on. Compared with traditional BI, agile BI can obtain the empowerment of innovative technologies such as big data, cloud computing, and AI technology at any time during the entire operation process, so as to achieve faster response capabilities for service objects.
From another point of view, domestic BI is more in line with domestic characteristics to a certain extent, and Guanyuan BI is also used as an example. First of all, in terms of localization integration capabilities, it can integrate mainstream applications in the domestic market, such as DingTalk, Qiwei, Feishu, Fanwei OA, etc., which are convenient for enterprises to use; secondly, domestic BI and its mobile BI pay more attention to collaborative scenarios within the enterprise , which is closer to the domestic business logic and easier to use; then, the domestic mobile user base is large and the proportion of users is high, which can provide large-scale support capabilities; finally, in terms of post-maintenance response speed, domestic BI products will also be faster than foreign BI products faster. Therefore, it is also highly recommended that everyone use and experience domestic BI.
