Mark Green, EMEA marketing director at cloud-based business intelligence firm Domo, is a case in point. Having spent half a dozen years at Rackspace before joining Domo in April, he not only understands the...

Roughly $14 billion is spent on Business Intelligence (BI) software every year, according to a Gartner research. If that figure seems huge, consider this: a Nucleus research, from September 2014, says organizations can expect an average return of $13.01 for every dollar spent on BI and analytics—translating to a return on investment of over 1300%. Data is an invaluable asset for companies. When they use BI and analytics tools effectively to transform raw data into coherent and actionable information, they are likely five times faster than their competitors in making better decisions, says a Bain &...

When the Covid-19 pandemic first hit globally, supporting organizations in healthcare took on a significance never seen before. Cloud-based software and infrastructure, helping to share information more easily between teams and keep resources afloat, became crucial. Many of the world’s biggest cloud companies – whose revenues admittedly go well into the billions each month – were able to help. Google Cloud helped provide several public Covid-19 datasets free to the Johns Hopkins Center for Systems Science and Engineering. Microsoft enabled NHS staff in the UK to use Teams for free....

Through new technology, local health experts are able to better pinpoint what outside regions pose the biggest risk to Southwest Colorado for COVID-19, and the results boil down to two of Durango’s biggest tourist pipelines.

One application, called “DOMO,” has the ability to tell local health officials the home base...

In our fast-changing world, chief executives need instant access to recent data to stay informed and make timely decisions.

It integrates with multiple data...

LEHI — When Cameron Williams first got a job in Utah, he didn’t know really what to expect. He’d heard about the state’s lack of diversity and some quick internet searches revealed negative article after negative article on what it was like to be Black in the state. With that, he expected it to be a short stay. “My plan was to come to Utah, be here for 18 months, and then move to Dallas because I didn’t want to be here at all,” Williams said. Nine years later, Williams is still in Utah. He's the director of diversity and...

In late February, my colleagues at Domo and I were planning for a new quarter and prepping for Domopalooza, our annual user conference. There is never a good time for a pandemic but weeks before your largest annual event brings a new level of disarray, so my early COVID-19 work-from-home plan was to embrace the challenge. Fortunately, the decisive pivot paid off and Domopalooza ended up being one of the first successful virtual events. While working from home with kids remains an adventure and brings new challenges every day, here are some of the lessons that I’ve learned...
