Uncover the wealth within your information
For your organization, Business Intelligence (BI) allows you to have a better understanding your activities in order to orient your strategic choices. Make informed decisions with the support of information technologies that locate and retrieve information.
Microsoft's Business Intelligence tools are structured around three main components: Business Scorecard Manager—a performance management solution, SQL Server —a business intelligence platform, and SharePoint Services—an enterprise information portal.
Business Intelligence platform
NEW! Microsoft releases SQL Server 2012
Microsoft SQL Server is a complete, secure, reliable, and efficient management platform for data and business intelligence analysis to support your company’s critical applications.
It offers indispensable tools for providing employees with the information they need. Its improved functionalities provide a complete solution that includes integrated business intelligence tools such as Online Analytical Processing (OLAP), data integration, extraction, transformation, and loading (ETL) tools, data storage, and a report manager.
Business Intelligence portal
As a unique and standardized entry point to a business information system, an enterprise business intelligence portal—created with SharePoint Services—allows all collaborators work more efficiently, get information faster, and collaborate better.
Performance management
The Business Scorecard Manager lets you instantaneously identify your real-time performance as compared to your objectives in all the key pertinent areas you defined. Each manager can thereby access key metrics, presented as visual graphs, by means of a Web interface. Each indicator is accompanied with a contextual analysis that offers the user a precise understanding of their activity.
With Business Scorecard Manager, teams share objectives, track project progress, and collaborate. The solution formalizes the objectives and responsibilities while specifying the strategy. The information, whether structured (reports, graphs, calculation sheets) or non-structured (Word documents, PowerPoint), is available in the dashboard to encourage communication and collaboration.
