    Analyst Opinion

    The demand for Business Intelligence Software (BI) in Europe has been on a steady rise in recent years, with an increasing number of companies adopting BI solutions to improve their decision-making processes and gain a competitive edge in the market.

    Customer preferences:
    Customers in Europe are increasingly looking for BI software that is flexible, easy to use, and can be customized to fit their specific business needs. They also prefer cloud-based solutions that offer real-time data analysis and visualization capabilities, as well as mobile accessibility.

    Trends in the market:
    In the United Kingdom, the BI market has been growing rapidly, driven by the increasing adoption of cloud-based solutions and the growing popularity of self-service analytics. Germany, on the other hand, has a strong market for on-premise BI solutions, with companies preferring to keep their data in-house. In France, there is a growing trend towards embedded BI, where analytics are integrated into other software applications, making it easier for users to access and analyze data.

    Local special circumstances:
    In Italy, the BI market has been growing steadily, with a focus on solutions that can help companies comply with regulatory requirements. The market in Spain has been driven by the increasing demand for data visualization and predictive analytics tools. Meanwhile, the Nordic countries have a strong focus on sustainability and are looking for BI solutions that can help them measure and reduce their carbon footprint.

    Underlying macroeconomic factors:
    The growth of the BI market in Europe can be attributed to several macroeconomic factors, including the increasing availability of data, the growing importance of data-driven decision making, and the need for companies to stay competitive in an increasingly globalized market. Additionally, the rise of the digital economy and the increasing adoption of emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence and machine learning are driving the demand for more advanced BI solutions.

    Software development - statistics & facts

    Imagine a world without the apps you use daily, the games you enjoy, or the websites you rely on. Software development is the invisible hand behind this digital magic, transforming ideas into the tools that shape our lives. Software development is the process of creating, designing, deploying, and supporting software. It includes all the computer activities between the software's conception and final manifestation.

    These activities are planned and put into stages in a logical order, a process known as the software development life cycle (SDLC) or software development. The SDLC often includes six stages: requirement analysis, design, development, testing, implementation, documentation, and evolution. Programming languages such as JavaScript and C++ are used to create software, with JavaScript being the most popular programming language in 2023 and used by roughly 65 percent of software developers.
