It&#8217;s that time of year again. You know, the time when people and organizations start to put together their big predictions for the year to come. With the <a href="https://www.forbes.com/sites/louiscolumbus/2017/08/31/2017-state-of-business-intelligence-and-predictive-analytics/#5fc61e0547a0">explosive growth of BI and analytics</a> in 2017, we had to get in on the action.



<a href="https://www.sisense.com/blog/5-big-predictions-business-intelligence-2017/">Last year</a> we had five big predictions for 2017, which included businesses reaching new levels of data complexity, BI tools liberating users, machines getting smarter, information democracy rising, and BI separating the winners from the losers.



In 2018, it&#8217;s not about a complete change in direction. Instead, it&#8217;s about building on what has happened in the past year to take BI and analytics to the new heights. How will organizations make sense of all of their complex data? <a href="https://www.sisense.com/whitepapers/augmented-analytics-the-future-of-business-intelligence/">Augmented Analytics</a>. What happens when data is truly democratized? Collaborative/cooperative BI. What exactly will separate the winners from the losers? If you&#8217;re asking us, it&#8217;s embedded analytics.



So, without further ado, here are our top trends that will emerge in 2018.
