Mobile Business Intelligence Strategy is Key

The key to thriving in a competitive marketplace is staying ahead of the competition. Making sound business decisions based on accurate and current information takes more than intuition.

Today’s concept of work:
Today’s workforce is changing the concept of “where work is done.” A variety of new devices and services are empowering the mobile worker to work where, when, and how he or she chooses. However, in today’s volatile, fast-paced competitive environment, it is more critical than ever, to have the data always at fingertips, enabling people to address challenges and opportunities in real-time.

Mobile desktop data:
The affordability and technological advances in smartphones, iPad and other tablets are allowing us to perform most of our duties from remote locations and even while commuting between destinations.
One such technological advance is FileReflex which enables instant access to desktop documents anytime, anywhere and thus increases the functionality and the productivity.

Business Intelligence:
“Business Intelligence is key for organizations increasingly driven by metrics to optimize revenue, performance, and profit. Better strategic and tactical decisions are made by using current and projected data.

Instant decision making:
If the analytical data and any other data required for instant decision making are locked on the desktop, the business intelligence function acts like a magnetic force pulling the workers back to the office to use it. Conversely, we have seen that the true context of today’s business – on the go, in the field, with the partners and customers – is already acting as an opposing magnetic force, pulling the workers away from the office. However, the real power of a mobile workforce is achieved by allowing people to work remotely without sacrificing access to the data that have become critical to their success.

Mobile BI:
The goal of mobile BI is to provide the worker with, the contextually relevant information, to make the best decisions, from anywhere on the globe. Connect directly to the desktop from the mobile and dynamically access and interact with the data available in your work place. This approach provides the mobile worker with the ability to analyze current data and determine the best action to take in response to a situation.
Most of the system have the BI data generated and stores in the desktop. These data are generally as Excel sheets/Pivot Tables & e-mail attachments. Most of the system send these data as e-mail attachments on a regular basis.
BI going mobile quickly, and tablets are leading that movement, thus these data can be easily viewed and e-mailed to anyone. With an one stop solution like FileReflex access to desktop documents on the go and even printing of necessary files on the move has been made possible.
