Smarter Analytics Solutions for Everyday Business People
The power of analytics lets business users meet the new two-fold mandate of business performance: strategic execution and business optimization. An analytics system couples strategy, process management, and operational systems with customized KPI models to enable an organizational culture that fosters operational excellence.
Business-embedded analytics: closing the loop
Analytics must be embedded into the very fabric of business process management. Today's technology of SaaS and cloud architectures, post-relational database, the semantic web, open source software, and inexpensive multi-core processing have opened the way for a powerful analytics solution as an enterprise-wide foundation for every business user to collaborate for better business performance.
Analytics pain points and the Axel solution
Axel is a new-generation analytics services platform that embeds analytics within a business in an active form: businesses can now understand and use analytics on a near-real-time basis to optimize performance. Traditional analytics system pain points are reduced or eliminated:
The Axel analytics platform, engine, and language put the power of disruptive predictive analytics into the hands of everyday decision-makers:
- Axel provides business users throughout the enterprise with easy-to-use, secure, interactive self-service analytics automation. No longer is the power of analytics confined to traditional power users.
- Aha! has deployed full predictive and advanced Axel analytics in production in 60 to 120 days, slashing previous timeframes of a year or more and dramatically lowering costs.
- A static system that doesn't focus on KPI-based models and provide near-real-time views dooms the business to a rearview mirror view of the business-always seeing what has happened, without a reliable prediction of what will happen.
- Even the most experienced managers and business analysts recognize that their knowledge and wisdom are not enough to optimize business performance. Model-based analytics supports decisions and actions according to the facts of the business, not just experience and hunch.
- Business data in many companies consists of spreadsheets of "facts," vast repositories, unconnected to business decision-making. Axel provides a single, sustainable content network for calculating current KPI-based models and enabling consistent, reliable, fully informed model-based decision-making.
