DATA ANALYST & STORYTELLER

Jordan McCarthyAs Tech Impact’s Data Analyst & Storyteller, I help nonprofits harness the power of data to tell important stories about their work to whoever needs to hear them.

Whether an organization is just beginning to think about how to use data, or is already collecting data but wants to explore more sophisticated ways to visualize and analyze them, I can help figure out what kinds of tools, analyses, and presentation styles will bring the organization’s data to life.

Participant Poll

What are your greatest barriers to moving your organization’s office productivity to the cloud?

• Selecting the “right” tool/suite for your needs

• Buy-in from leadership

• Training staff/learning curve for new apps/adoption/change management

• Cost/subscription/fees

• Security concerns/data lineage/HIPAA compliance

• Just don’t know how to do it!/Lack of knowledge

• No technical support to help us do it! Migration/implementation

• Reliable Internet connectivity

• Fear of “letting go” of onsite control

• Other (comment in chat)

• Ongoing costs • Somewhat reduced control• Dependent on reliable connectivity• Security / Data Integrity

What Are Some Potential Drawbacks of Cloud IT?

21

• Ongoing costs • Heavily discounted for non-profits• Means that you also get continuous support +

rolling upgrades

• Somewhat reduced control• Much harder to break things• Again, you have someone to call for support

• Dependent on reliable connectivity• In this day and age, you probably need this anyway

• Security / Data Integrity• Vastly improved in Cloud systems

What Are the Benefits of Cloud IT Services?

22

• Nothing to own• Low implementation costs• Rapid deployment• Scalability (time + cost)• Convenience (anywhere, anytime)• Ability to use less powerful clients

(Net books, iPad, portable computers)• Backup/Recovery/Disaster planning• Downtime is minimized• Updates are automatic/very easy• Security

Benefits of Cloud IT Services (Continued)

How Can Cloud IT Be Affordable?

• Competition– Internet bandwidth, speed, pricing– Data Center infrastructure in place– Solutions are already pre-built, at

commercial scale– Vendors want market share

volume, volume, volume
