Your business accumulates a large amount of data every day which is stored in different systems: CRM, ERP, Excel spreadsheets and others.
Companies spend a lot of time and money stitching the disparate systems and data together. There are some typical problems of data being stored in different places:
- hard to “cover with a glance” your data in its entirety
- raw data does not look easy to digest and it takes more time and resources to work with it
- analyzing data from different sources can lead to biased results
- tracking key parameters in different systems separately lacks effectiveness
- data updates sometimes are not automized which lacks productivity
- if two systems use the same data, sometimes it’s necessary to input it manually which is a reason for additional expenses and mistakes
- hard to come up with a customized report with data from different sources
