During the past eight years, since the journal started, I have written articles on what customers expect from BI (Sabanovic & Søilen, 2012), about what vendors do to differentiate themselves in BI (Søilen & Hasslinger, 2012b), and I have done an analysis of previous and similar articles in Journal of Competitive Intelligence & Management (JCIM) and Competitive Intelligence Review (CIR), two journals that in many ways are the predecessors of The Journal of Intelligence Studies in Business (JISIB) (Søilen, 2013)
In Agostino et al (2013) we studied how both customers and vendors think about Cloud solutions to BI
