Data is useless when it’s spread throughout your organization in emails, sitting in disparate systems, or trapped in Excel sheets and antiquated databases. Business Intelligence is about getting the information you need in the right format to the right people at the right time. It’s a set of applications and technologies designed to gather, store, analyze and deliver data. And it empowers every employee – from senior executives, to analysts, to business unit managers, to front-line staff – by supplying them with vital information so they can work better, faster and smarter.
Small Footprint provides the following Business Intelligence solutions:
Reporting Solutions: to help organizations author, manage, and deliver both paper-based and interactive Web-based reports. The common scenarios are:
- Enterprise reporting: for operational reporting or business intelligence applications.
- Reporting for partners and customers: to extend information via the web to seamlessly interact with customers, partners, and suppliers in real time.
Analysis: On Line Analytical Processing (OLAP) data analysis tools for drill-down, slice and dice and drill through capabilities. If you have a single pool of data with all its relationships pre-defined, then you can spend your time doing analysis rather than writing queries or matching disparate data sources. OLAP allows for dimensional analysis of your data and gives the analyst a sandbox for analyzing a series of measures across multiple dimensions.
