Social Business Intelligence – It really does exist!

leave a comment »

One of the most exciting features of our next generation Scorecard solution called INSIGHTS is its social collaboration features.   You see, with our mobile business intelligence solution PUSHBI (www.pushbi.com), we built in a feature to allow individuals the ability to comment on a KPI if they had access to it.  Well an interesting behavior occurred, people actually started using commentary for the first time and texting in their comments on a KPI.   So we knew we had something here…

With our INSIGHTS solution, we bring to bear social business collaboration around KPIs as a core and important feature.  As the following screenshots shows, we integrated in Unified Communication solutions like Microsoft Lync right into the solution.  Now the people that have access to that KPI are just a click away.  You have the ability to IM, Call or send a message to a group of people that are affected by that KPI.

operations_question

For the first time, you have the ability to sit down on Monday morning  at work and see immediately what is going on with your most important metrics.  No more needing to email a bunch of people and await a response maybe 4 or 8 hours later, it is just there!   Instantly when you view it you know what is going on with those metrics and whether you need to make a command decision or not.

Heck, our commentary feature is really powerful.  You can assign a task for someone to do further analysis.  That person will get that follow up task and take action.  The result might people an Excel spreadsheet or a PowerPoint deck that gets attached to the response for everyone to see.  WOW!

Just think if you brought the social power of INSIGHTS to your business and the affect it could have.   We are seeing businesses transform in weeks, not years, using INSIGHTS.

INSIGHTS – Social Performance Management Solution

leave a comment »

At Extended Results, we really never just sit around waiting for someone to tell us about a good idea.   Today we are excited to launch a new solution called INSIGHTS.   What is INSIGHTS?   It is the 1st Social Business Performance Management solution in the marketplace.   Please visit http://www.extendedinsights.com for more information.  I’m going to do a series of blogs on INSIGHTS and the outstanding features of the solution that will make your business better right away with a small investment.

Take Scorecarding, add some Social to it, add some What-If, survey the Pulse of your business, add a report catalog and add mobile device access and you truly have a unique and innovative solution that hasn’t existed in the marketplace until now.   Just think about your performance management efforts and how they are basically a static report in a portal.  If you could make it a living and breathing solution in your business, everyone is involved and everyone is informed.   That is the power of having great business Insights.

operations_tileview

It starts in the SharePoint portal with our scorecard solution.  Click a KPI and see the social discussion behind that number, see all the related documents and reports too!   Within one click or touch, you are immediately informed on your most pressing business measurements.   Our scorecard is interactive, smart and elegant.  It works like you do and gets you back to work instead of clicking around to get the answer, it is just there for you.
