Over the past 20 years, the technologies available to help you “mine” your data have increased exponentially—from friendly search technologies and dashboards to advanced business intelligence analytics. And yet . . . even with all of these tools, you still need to “go get” the information you need; and once retrieved (or displayed), you still need to figure out what do to with that information, who needs to do it . . . and get it done.
The concept of “actionable insight” uniquely combines data mining, data delivery, and automated workflow to ensure that you have not only insight into what’s going on in your business, but also an automated action plan to address the activities that have occurred.
This session will include a discussion of ten aspects of your business that can be improved through such a system of actionable insight leveraging Sage Alerts & Workflow integration with Sage solutions.
