Sage Enterprise Intelligence: enhancing the power of Sage X3

Sage Enterprise Intelligence: enhancing the power of Sage X3

 

Analytics and Business Intelligence (BI) is an organisation’s priority. Nearly 50% of all businesses already use BI tools, and this number is expected to continue to grow in the coming year as people seek to derive more value from all the data that they are storing. It is, therefore, an essential tool for digital transformation, providing business leaders with the ability to react with greater speed and agility. 

The right BI solution can help uncover opportunities, mitigate risks, improve operational effectiveness, and drive customer acquisition by using actionable and accurate data.

The power of Business Intelligence

There’s no doubt that Business Intelligence is essential for company success, agility and growth. From improving everyday tasks such as managing resources to uncovering sales trends that could change the course of your company, when you’re in the know, you’re better placed to succeed. However, the full power of BI can only be unlocked when the solution you use integrates properly with your business management platform, with the scope to bring together all the data you need and then filter it appropriately, to present the information you need at speed. Only then can you truly empower teams across multiple departments to make accurate and timely informed decisions.

Introducing Sage Enterprise Intelligence 

Sage Enterprise Intelligence (SEI) is the missing Business Intelligence link. It’s the BI solution of choice for over 2,200 global Sage customers, with simple-to-use, yet powerful analytical and reporting capabilities. You can finally go beyond the limits of spreadsheets to get a real-time view of your data and transform it into meaningful information. You can connect to ERP transactional data and get the intuitive tools you need to deliver fast and accurate analysis.

SEI is a fully cloud-enabled business intelligence tool, seamlessly integrated into Sage X3. It enables a standard way of accessing, visualising, analysing and reporting on information in your organisation, from one place. Learn more by watching CPiO's short explainer video here

  • Process large amounts of data faster - a single source of access across all your data systems, not just your ERP system. Streamline corporate growth by facilitating data migration and system updates. 
  • Make faster and better decisions - real time access will reduce your workload and allow you to prepare reports quicker. Access a large library of reporting templates, simply analyse and focus on the most important areas of your business. 

Leveraging BI and ERP integration, you’ll reduce the time to decision making and improve the coordination of operations across your organisation. As the only BI solution purpose-built to integrate seamlessly with Sage’s suite of products, SEI combines the power to manage even the most complex business data with an ease of use unmatched in the industry.
