Echoing Tiwari’s sentiments, Nitin Sahu, Co-founder of Helical Insight, highlighted the platform’s future roadmap, emphasizing upcoming features set to redefine BI paradigms. “We are actively pursuing next-generation capabilities, including Generative AI integration and the introduction of canned reporting functionalities in our forthcoming version 6.0 release. These initiatives underscore our commitment to innovation and customer-centricity,” Sahu remarked.

In a rapidly evolving business landscape, BI plays a pivotal role in enabling data-driven decision-making. According to Fortune Business Insights, the global BI market is poised for robust growth, with projections indicating a surge from $24.05 billion in 2021 to $43.03 billion by 2028, reflecting a CAGR of 8.7% during the forecast period. Despite the immense potential, BI adoption rates remain modest, with only 26% of organizations embracing BI solutions, as reported by 360Suite. However, the tide is turning, with small businesses increasingly leveraging BI features to gain a competitive edge, as highlighted in a 2019 report by Grand View Research.

Helical Insight stands at the forefront of this transformative wave, empowering enterprises of all sizes to harness the power of data and drive actionable insights. As organizations navigate an era defined by data abundance and complexity, Helical Insight emerges as a beacon of innovation, fostering a culture of data-driven decision-making and propelling businesses towards sustained success.
