Most IT decision makers don’t trust data, but 54% still use it to make decisions
2020-12-11 04:00

77% of IT decision makers don't completely trust the data within their organization for timely and accurate decision making, according to SnapLogic.

Worryingly, those who have little or no trust in their organization's data report that 54% of strategic decisions continue to use that same data, risking flawed decisions and perhaps hindering, rather than helping, the business achieve their goals.

Rebuilding trust in data and data analytics overwhelmingly comes down to improving the ease and speed of access to quality, decision-ready data within the organization.

"It's well known that effective use of data analytics can provide significant business advantages. But to know that so many organizations are making business decisions using data they do not trust is alarming," said Craig Stewart, CTO at SnapLogic.

"To get data analytics projects right, it's critical that organizations review what data they have, the applications and sources it comes from, and how they are bringing it all together. Modern integration tools can help with this, providing an automated way to democratize data throughout the organization so it's accessible at the right time in the right format to all those who need it."
