Business Benefits

1. Reveal new possibilities

2. Eliminate underperformance and process bottlenecks

Having a clear picture of your business processes, the performance of your company departments and colleagues is of vital importance if you want to improve efficiency. Many times the performance is apparently insufficient but the motives behind the performance problems are very difficult to discover. With Insight A2 you can analyze several aspects of your company's performance. Owing to the high standard visualization techniques it is possible to compare the differences in performance between the given areas along several categories.

3. Extract information at all corporate levels

At all levels of corporate structure there is a great demand for high level summary reports. Unfortunately they are hardly ever accompanied by detailed analyses describing the real drivers behind these reports, although the summaries cannot achieve their goals without such supporting analyses. Do your colleagues know what details are really relevant? With Insight A2 you can review and analyze all the details of your company operations at any level. What is more, visualizing the dynamics behind the figures of the high level summaries is a matter of just a few clicks.

4. Utilize untapped databases

In many cases corporate data are scattered across smaller databases, not in a single central database. A great disadvantage of the currently used Business Intelligence systems is that they are not designed to work in such heterogeneous environment, although relevant information almost always hides in these small data sources. Insight A2 can connect to almost all types of relational databases used nowadays, including Excel spreadsheets, Oracle, MySQL, SQL Server and other databases. What is more, Insight A2 provides the same well-designed, easy-to-use interface to all database types it supports.

5. Add analytical background information to your reports

It causes a considerable loss of time and energy for information workers that important reports tend to be out of date and are not adapted to their current needs. Insight A2 helps overcome these problems by providing the capability to perform real-time, interactive analysis sessions. During an analysis session in Insight A2 you can step-by-step refine your visualizations and any changes you make is reflected in the visualizations right away. This multi-step refinement method allows you to better understand how you arrive from highly aggregated figures to the final, more detailed results, but also helps reveal how aggregated figures are made up from their constituents.

6. Involve business users in the analytical processes

Today most employees of a company are forced to work with ready-made reports, and have no access to reports that truly answers their specific questions. In this case it is impossible to get a clear picture how a product, employee or department performs, not even for those who badly need such essential information for their work.

The intuitive user interface and many built-in automations of Insight A2 let business users take advantage of visual data analysis even without previous analytics background. One of the key benefits of Insight A2 is that it facilitates interactive visual data analysis among employees who would otherwise rely on ready-made reports only.

7. Ensure continuous improvement

To achieve continuous improvement in a company it is essential to have a clear picture of past and present company operations. This means that company activities need to be kept under permanent analysis, without treating the analytical processes as separate functions. Insight A2 is easy to adapt to the daily work routines of business users. Using this software enables employees to obtain such information that can be turned into action right away, which is the key for continuous improvement.

8. Reduce the workload of your IT department

IT departments usually struggle with work overload, as a result of which employees are often forced to wait several days or even weeks before they get a new report. Because of this delay business users have no access to relevant data in time and they are unable to support their decisions with pertinent information, which might easily lead to wrong decisions.

With Insight A2 users no longer need to depend on the IT department to obtain the reports important for their own work. Employees can prepare their own ad-hoc reports and analyses in minutes. This way the employees’ work is not interrupted by inconvenient delays and the workload of the IT department is reduced at the same time.
