Topic:
Bringing analytics to the masses through the power of search
Summary:
2 billion humans use search every day to get the instant answers they need to book flights, trade stocks, apply for jobs and more. But when we come into work, we have to wait days or even weeks to get the data we need to make decisions. ThoughtSpot is disrupting the business intelligence industry with search-driven analytics that provides ad hoc data discovery for end users, within a governed environment.
Join Anand Raghavan, Senior Director of Product Management, and Joe Abbott, Technical Marketing Engineer, to learn how some of the most successful Fortune 500 companies are giving front-line employees the ability to build their own reports and dashboards in seconds, with search.
