Business intelligence today is more important than ever. Ninety percent of the data that exists today the world over was created in the last two years alone. Going forward, the rate of data creation is only going to accelerate. The chief reason for that is the explosion of social media channels and the burgeoning number of users disseminating data at breakneck speeds. What's the point of all that sea of data without an iota of insightful information? Businesses are finding it a conundrum to decipher meaningful insights out of it all. This is where business intelligence can chip in and we can help your company do it.

Improving performance, delivering on customer promises, and building long-term customer relationships are some of the benefits of BI which we will offer to companies.

There are a plethora of BI applications available on the market today that integrate with your accounting software. The key is to understand which is best for your type of business as each has its own pros/cons and features. Business intelligence is not just about tracking KPIs (key performance indicators) once a month or quarter. BI includes forecasting to avoid bottlenecks and provide perfect timing for decision making such as purchasing or new hires.

For business owners, this means making smart decisions and trying to know where to put your marketing dollars and where to invest in infrastructure. We can help you do that by using the feature of BI.
Business intelligence is having access to all your business data, regardless of platform, in a singular, unified dashboard. This can include customer data from your CRM system, email marketing, and website engagements tracked in your data management platform, customer interactions on user chat tools like Intercom.io — all aggregated into a single holistic view of the customer and their interactions with your business.
This is extremely important now as customers are interacting with a business across a multitude of platforms and channels, including their website, social channels, live chat tools, email, and also purchasing products both offline and online. Without a single consolidated view of the customer, it would be difficult to know how to best address them, or meet their needs. But with the BI, we can help you do it easier.

Retailers and brands need to know where their inventory is located and how well it’s selling. Analytics provides this insight to buyers and executives so they can capitalize on buying trends.
To truly understand and satisfy customers’ needs and correct problems, companies must first understand why a phenomenon is happening, rather than go with a gut feeling. By using BI, we will help our clients adding qualitative analytics to their dashboard alongside the quantitative data that can give them that big picture which can answer all questions involved consumer behavior and propose fit solutions.
We use these tools to give our clients the insights they need to achieve things like growth, resolve issues that are urgent, collect all their data in one place, forecast future outcomes and so much more.
