Successful organizations make the most of their data
Every large organization manages a vast amount of databases and business data. Many organizations are looking for solutions that can effectively analyze their data and turn it into actionable information. They are aware of the potential of data to accelerate and simplify business processes and create new opportunities.
Software giant SAP rightfully claims in its materials that “the future belongs to data-driven organizations.” SAP Analytics Cloud is a solution designed to help organizations extract the maximum value from their data. It is a comprehensive system that facilitates data collection, integration, reporting, analysis, and business decision-making processes.
SAP Analytics Cloud provides your organization with the flexibility and simplicity of accessing information in one place.
Advantages of SAP Analytics Cloud
Seamless integration with existing systems
SAP Analytics Cloud easily integrates into your existing business environment. Integration can be done with data from various sources and planning solutions without altering or interfering with the existing data. This ensures the continuity of security, processes, and the integrity of current data. Reports are created based on all available information systems and data within the organization.
The solution can connect to all your systems, both those physically located within the organization and those in the cloud. Organizations can continue to access and modify their data as needed, as there is no replication of data within SAP Analytics Cloud. All changes to data are automatically updated in the solution, ensuring there are no multiple or inconsistent versions of the same data.
Added value from data
Often, the information systems used by organizations are not capable of producing complex and advanced reports. SAP Analytics Cloud generates reports and analyses with reliable and timely information, that form the basis for quality business decisions. The solution offers tools that help organizations gain additional value from their existing data.
Users can gain insights they might have otherwise missed or were unaware of. Organizations can discover information, identify relationships between data, predict trends, perform forecasts, compare results over time, track key performance indicators (KPIs), compare results against planned activities and budgets, and more.
SAP Analytics Cloud enables proactive and informed decision-making in real time.
Various types of data presentation
It’s not enough for organizations to access critical information if they cannot adequately interpret it. SAP Analytics Cloud offers various types of analytical displays and provides multiple dynamic visualization options. The solution’s interface is intuitive and easy to use, giving users different ways to view data.
Organizations can present information through customizable charts, graphs, and dashboards. Regardless of the quantity and complexity of the data, reading and interpreting it is quick, accurate, and straightforward. Organizations don’t have to spend time “analyzing their analyses.”
Modern technology – Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence
SAP Analytics Cloud integrates state-of-the-art business intelligence tools, including machine learning and embedded artificial intelligence. The system provides deep insights into data, discovering key influences, relationships, and factors that most affect business results. This technology enables organizations to conduct advanced analyses and unlock new business opportunities.
The solution includes the ability to simulate future scenarios and predict outcomes based on past results. It can also identify new opportunities and adjust reports based on various parameters (e.g., testing different budgets). The system can simulate the best-case scenario, the worst-case scenario, and the most realistic scenario.
Simulated scenarios and predictive analyses can be compared, allowing organizations to shorten the time needed to make informed decisions based on predicted results. These “what-if” analyses further empower businesses, providing additional tools for optimizing processes. You’ll have informed activity projections and reduced risks.
All-in-one system
SAP Analytics Cloud is a comprehensive system that avoids overlaps with existing information systems that don’t add value. It fosters easier and more efficient collaboration between different departments and team members. All parts of the organization (finance and accounting, HR, marketing, sales, IT, operations, warehouse, etc.) have access to the same data analyses.
The solution can be further tailored to meet the needs of individual organizations, enabling them to extract even more value from their data. There’s no need for micromanagement between departments—coherence, stability, and increased productivity are established. You’ll have aligned information and awareness throughout the entire organization.
