I selected "Other". We simply struggle to make analytical data "self-serviceable". If I were an analyst, I would struggle. We try to treat data as a product, leverage a data catalog, provide personal coaching or instruction, create company specific data training. While I do think it's getting better, data can be frustratingly complex. Even if you can write basic SQL queries, knowing where to look and how to join highly normalized tables is a challenge. I'd love to hear comments and/or recommendations from those of you who are further along the journey.
