Over the past 20 years, the technologies available to help you “mine” your data have increased exponentially—from friendly search technologies and dashboards to advanced business intelligence analytics and reporting. And yet even with all of these tools, you still need to “go get” the information you need; and once retrieved (or displayed), you still need to figure out what to do with that information, who needs to do it and then get it done.
The concept of “actionable insight” uniquely combines data mining, data delivery, and automated workflow to ensure that you have not only insight into what’s going on in your business, but also an automated action plan to address the activities that have occurred.

- What are “actionable insights”
