Power to the People
Insight Reporting is a true end-user tool that empowers the business and increases productivity and effectiveness of all reporting stakeholders. It's a far cry from complex technical tools that demand knowledge of the convoluted data structures in the underlying ERP. Insight Reporting's business-user approach removes the dependence on an already over-burdened IT department and gets them the results they need quickly. In addition, a friendly user experience that requires little or no training creates a whole bunch of happy users.
Content for the Masses
There are thousands of intricate data relationships in ERP systems like JD Edwards and Oracle E-Business Suite. Insight Reporting understands them so users don't have to. Select from a massive gallery of great content - pre-built, plug-and-play views, and others - that are geared toward business questions. The views are dynamic, configurable and include essential logic without any setup. Insight Reporting templates de-risk the process as all different aspects of the data are reliably combined, rather than someone having to figure it out ... and potentially get it wrong.
ERP Smarts
Generic solutions provide generic results. That's why Insight Reporting is purpose-built and immediately connected to JD Edwards or Oracle E-Business Suite. This includes not only understanding the complexity of the ERP system and the underlying data but also honoring the security that is essential to the process.
Redefining the Reporting Lifecycle
The ability to perform impromptu ad-hoc inquiries that immediately answer the business questions of the moment is a significant strength for Insight Reporting and ultimately helps to reduce the reporting burden. In Insight Reporting, it's not uncommon for a report to start its life as a useful inquiry that's transformed into a business report through formatting and other additions. Reporting and real-time inquiry is a symbiotic process with Insight Reporting.
No Strings Attached
Many organizations complain about the speed of their existing reporting process. That's why Insight Reporting is capable of creating reports in minutes that can be run real-time in seconds without impacting the general operation of the JD Edwards or Oracle E-Business Suite systems. There is no additional hardware, software or infrastructure required, and no consulting services needed for operation and maintenance. Insight Software is an out-of-the box experience with no strings attached.
Instant Gratification
The days of having to accept long Business Intelligence implementation times to deliver management reporting are long gone. That's why Insight Reporting can be installed and configured in less than an hour. Faster implementations de-risk reporting investments, substantially lowering the total cost of ownership, and increasing the time-to-benefit.
Joined Up Thinking
Reporting has never been a discrete activity. It's only as good as the business process and data quality it leverages. Insight Reporting provides more than captivating reports. It also addresses data management challenges along the way and fundamentally improves the business process itself to deliver true economic benefit.
A Cure for Spreadsheet Madness
Spreadsheet proliferation can impact reporting quality, which undermines the decision-making process. Spreadsheets can present version control problems, data integrity issues, security mishaps, audit concerns, and compliance challenges. Spreadsheets are extremely flexible, but their biggest strength becomes their ultimate weakness. It can be argued that automation merely accentuates the problem. Insight Software is a non-spreadsheet centric solution that negates these challenges for a superior overall reporting experience.
