Why self service analytics stalls
in growing businesses

Most of the friction sits in the data and the people behind the dashboards, long before anyone clicks a filter.

67%

Reports that never agree

When teams pull the same metric from different sources, meetings turn into debates about whose number is right. Precisely and Drexel University's 2025 Outlook found 67% of organisations don't completely trust the data behind their decisions.

76%

Dashboards too slow to use

As data volumes grow, older reporting tools start to drag and people stop waiting for them. In Sigma's State of BI 2025 report with GWI, 76% of companies cited slow performance and 71% reported scalability problems.

42%

Too few people who can build reports

Every new question joins a queue for the same small team, and decisions wait. The same Precisely and Drexel research found 42% of organisations name a shortage of skills and resources as a top data integrity challenge.

All three ease once there is one governed data model that everyone builds from.

Governed dashboards your teams can trust, without waiting on IT

Self service analytics gives your teams direct access to trusted dashboards and reports, without raising a request and waiting for IT to build it. Cybit builds these environments on Power BI and Qlik, with a governed data model underneath so every number matches, whichever team is looking at it. For growing SMBs, that means faster decisions and a data team freed from repetitive reporting.

Why Choose Cybit

We have seen self service rollouts stall because the data model was an afterthought. Our decades long Microsoft partnership, Qlik Elite Partner status, and the results delivered for organisations like The Rudd Group, where reporting time dropped from 80 days to just one hour, show what happens when governance comes first. Talk to us before you buy a licence, not after.

What the Analysts Say

Gartner's research on data quality finds that 59% of organisations do not measure data quality at all, which is why the same number can be reported three different ways before anyone notices. Governing the model underneath is what makes self service trustworthy rather than merely fast.

Frequently Asked Questions

Self service analytics gives business teams direct access to trusted dashboards and reports without raising a request to IT. The data model and governance sit underneath, so users explore freely without producing conflicting numbers.

Either works. Power BI suits organisations already invested in Microsoft 365 and Azure. Qlik suits associative exploration across many data sources. Cybit is a Qlik Elite Partner and a Microsoft Partner, so the recommendation reflects your estate rather than one vendor relationship.

Most commonly because the data model was treated as an afterthought. When every team builds from raw sources, the same metric returns different answers and trust collapses. Governance first is what prevents it.

A first governed dashboard set is typically live within weeks, not months, because the work starts with one business question rather than the whole estate.

Usually because teams build from different sources using different definitions of the same metric. Precisely and Drexel University found 67% of organisations don't completely trust the data they rely on for decisions. A shared, governed data model is what brings the figures into line.
