A Nucleus Research report has featured global industry-built enterprise resource planning (ERP) software developer, SYSPRO, for its new Embedded Analytics capability, which manufacturing and distribution business leaders to analyse ERP data without using IT.
“Most companies still lack a modern data analytics ecosystem, and instead rely on Excel spreadsheets that prove too slow and cumbersome to be effective in informing day-to-day operations,” said Isaac Gould, research manager at Nucleus Research.
The new Embedded Analytics functionality enables business users to gain insight through real-time data within their ERP systems, allowing them to propagate analytics to the individual employee level within their workspace while maintaining security and access controls.
The Nucleus report highlighted three benefits that come with Embedded Analytics, including improved organisational visibility through interactive dashboards and visuals that allow users to drill down and expand visuals to provide business users with quick access to relevant information.
SYSPRO users can now also avoid involving and waiting on IT or data science teams to generate the insights they need, in turn boosting employee productivity. SYSPRO’s wizard enables business users to build custom dashboards and analyse data on their own.
Furthermore, with analytics built into SYSPRO ERP, the new capability eradicates the need to invest in integrations between the BI solution and various data sources.
“Nucleus found that SYSPRO Embedded Analytics enables users throughout the organisation to access data and insights. As a result, they can make faster, data-driven decisions that improve their customer relationships, optimise operations and increase revenue,” said Darren Edwards, head of product operations at SYSPRO.
