All- I would like to get insights into how others have managed reporting across their enterprise. There are always two schools of thought on centralization of data & reporting vs decentralization. Is there a middle ground you have found. My experience is when you provide API integrations for all the data in any large application you end up with duplicated reporting across the enterprise; losing some of the associated cost savings as well as not having one source of truth. Time spent debating on what data is right. You also increase cost because the exported data is then visualized in PowerBI and Tableau. I know those integrations exist for a reason, but how do you balance. My thought is its better to allow your different orgs access to the reporting platform and let them build out what they want (with limitations on data tables etc) and also provide a small centralized team to do complicated reporting. Thoughts?
