Paris, September, 22nd 2011Stefano Scamuzzo – SpagoWorld by Engineering Group

John, Sales Manager at Foo.com

My name is Stefano but in the next 6 minutes I will be:

Jack, IT Manager at Foo.com

Hi Jack, I want to rapidly know how much we are selling in Europe, which products are most sold, which customers bought more than last year,

And and and ....

John, I told you so many times, we need a Business Intelligence system ...

… but you are so in love with those Excel sheets you are producing every day

Yes, you told me but I remember you that a BI system is a costly, long and high demanding project …

… we are in economical crisis … did you ever hear about it ?

Yes, I know, I'm reading newspapers … but now with open source and agile BI things are no more as you still are believing !

In less than 5 minutes I will show you what you can do with SpagoBI, it's a BI suite, the only 100% open source I found in my solution scouting ...

Hmm … it seems like you are trying to sell me an old car as usual …

People, would you trust him ? Let's see … Jack, proceed, I'm so curious

I could show you more things, as: making analysis on geographical maps, building interactive dashboards, displaying indicators and charts on mobile devices as smartphones and tablets but ..

… I know my time is almost over and you have to go playing tennis with your friends …

… but I have a last question for you: “What do you think about ?”

Wow … looks like you convinced me to buy your old used car … world is really changing ...

Ok, let's have a beer … and tomorrow morning start building a prototpye with this SpagoBI … or whatever you called it !

Should we finally convince our boss too ?

Thank you
